Penfolds Max Cabernet Sauvignon 75cl is a premium Australian red wine produced by Penfolds, one of the country’s most established wineries, founded in 1844. This wine is part of the Max’s range, created as a tribute to former chief winemaker Max Schubert, known for shaping the Penfolds house style.

Made from Cabernet Sauvignon grapes grown in South Australia, this wine delivers a structured and balanced profile. It is matured in a combination of French and American oak barrels, contributing to its depth and complexity. The alcohol content is approximately 14.5% ABV, placing it within a full-bodied red wine category.

The flavour profile is characterised by blackcurrant, plum, and blackberry notes, supported by hints of mint, cedar, vanilla, and spice. On the palate, it offers a combination of dark fruit richness with earthy undertones and fine tannins, leading to a smooth and persistent finish.

This wine is considered approachable yet structured, making it suitable for both immediate drinking and short-term cellaring (typically up to 2029 depending on vintage). It pairs well with grilled meats, steak, lamb, and mature cheeses, complementing rich and savoury dishes.
