Penfolds first Chief Winemaker Max Schubert dared to revolutionise Australian winemaking. Today, we celebrate his bold and passionate spirit with Penfolds Max’s. Each wine is polished and charming in character, expressing varietal cues, alluring fruit and structure.Collaborating closely with our winemaking team, our growers quietly wait, watch and work the individual grape varietals to ensure they benefit from the right amount of sunshine and water before getting picked at the optimum. After all, quality winemaking is something that just cannot be rushed. What is inside? 2 bottles of Penfolds Max’s Wines.
