Penfolds Cabernet Sauvignon Max's 2016 sku_1903345 from aperitif to dessertDark red with a magenta core, the Max's Cabernet Sauvignon has aromas of red currants, cranberry, and dried Italian herbs. Red, blue, and black fruits melded with sweet spiced cinnamon on the palate with a touch of vanilla chai and cedar oak. Fine, silky tannins add savory balance and length to the palate. Purple berries and blackcurrants. Theres attractive freshness with licorice, some leafy nuances and roasting herbs. Really nice and fleshy uptake
