Penfolds Redemption Episode | Penfolds Max's Cabernet Sauvignon 2022 Review
<p>This week, we're kicking off our Australian wine challenge with a bottle recommended by you, our listeners.</p><p><br></p><p>After our infamous Yellow Tail review stirred up plenty of passionate responses from Australia, we knew we had to come back with an open mind. Enter the 2022 Penfolds Max's Cabernet Sauvignon from South Australia (14.5% ABV, $18-22).</p><p><br></p><p>Along the way, we explore why it's a mistake to judge an entire wine region by a single bottle, why Cabernet and Shiraz can taste dramatically different even when they're grown in the same country, and how understanding the grape can be just as important as understanding where it came from.</p><p><br></p><p>Most importantly, we ask a bigger question: are we finally discovering the sweet spot for value wines, or is finding great wine under $17 still just a game of chance?</p><p><br></p><p>Support the show and help keep the wine flowing!</p><p><strong>Buy us a glass!</strong></p><p><strong></strong><a href="https://buymeacoffee.com/cheers3">https://buymeacoffee.com/cheers3</a></p><p><br></p><p>Connect with the show.
