Wine Expert Note:

This Penfolds Max's Shiraz-Cabernet is a well-balanced blend of two varietals, combining the boldness of Shiraz with the elegance of Cabernet. On the nose, aromas of ripe dark fruit, cassis, and blackberries are joined by hints of earthiness, spice, and graphite. On the palate, flavors of black cherry, blueberry, and dark chocolate are complemented by a fine tannic structure and nuanced notes of licorice and nutmeg. The finish is long and smooth, with a lingering hint of sweet tobacco and cedar. A complex and enjoyable wine, perfect for a special occasion.
