Max's range commemorates Max Schubert, Penfolds first Chief Winemaker and creator of Grange.
Critic tasting note: (2021 vintage) "A dense, broody nose of dark berry fruit, subtle peppery spice and mocha oak influence commence, followed by a tightly packed palate dominated by dusty, powerful tannins. Still young and quite austere, this should unravel and evolve with time. Drink 2026-2040." - Wine Enthusiast
