Penfolds Max's Shiraz 2022 vintage has a crimson hue, with a ruby luminescence at the rim. The varietally distinct aromatic spectrum invokes chocolate truffle dusting, white cherries, musk, red liquorice, fresh pomegranate, hibiscus, bread and butter pudding, cinnamon with savoury notes of caper and green olive. The mouthfeel is succulent with abundant freshness/energy. Cherries are consistent from the nose to the palate, as is liquorice, however in this instance the impression is more akin to Dutch liquorice. Saffron, coffee bean, sarsaparilla and cola creaminess add to the to the textural interest, almost certainly oak derived elements that soften and encapsulates the tannins.
