Middelvlei Unoaked Chardonnay

Aromas of citrus and pear are complimented by subtle tropical notes. The buttery undertone from the underlying oak completes the complex but elegant wine.

Hints of apple and white-stone fruit give way to a zesty, orange-peel finish.

Penfolds Max’s Chardonnay is a tribute to former Chief Winemaker Max Schubert 1948-1975, a legend in Penfolds history. Max’s constant pursuit of excellence paved the way for those who followed in his footsteps and also allowed the status and heritage of Penfolds to grow. Max’s Chardonnay continues the evolution of the Penfolds white wine program, drawing inspiration from the legacy and spirit of the many wine trials of Max Schubert, a Penfolds winemaking legend.

Fresh lemon peel and grapefruit skin dominate the nose and palate, and is beautifully rounded off with soft buttery notes in the background.
