Penfolds Max's Chardonnay 2022

  • Country Australia
  • Region Adelaide Hills
  • Grape Chardonnay
  • Abv 13%
  • Case 6/75
  • Ripe white peach, finger lime, and lemon sorbet. There is a sweet, creamy, biscuity character redolent of freshly baked cheesecake, most likely a lees/ battonage influence. A fine line of balanced mineral-like acidity adds length and bodes well for food pairing. My first impressions were of honeydew, melon, and white peach. Lemon/lime curd, pistachio nuts, creamy cashew, nougat and a complexing subtle rock flint character complement grapefruit citrus notes.

French oak barriques, 7% new, 17% 1 y.o. with the balance in seasoned barrels.

The Adelaide Hills region enjoyed healthy winter rainfall and a relatively dry September, encouraging good canopy development and even budburst. Spring temperatures were generally cooler than average, with October being the coldest in decades. This delayed flowering and fruit set by several weeks however yields were near average. The generally mild weather prevailed over summer and autumn, resulting in a long growing season and leisurely harvest. These conditions were conducive to growing quality chardonnay with strong varietal characteristics and bracing natural acidity.
