Description
The unique mesoclimate at Stony Brook seems naturally suited to growing red Bordeaux varieities. There is plenty of sunshine to allow the grapes ample ripeness, while the cool night-time temperatures seal in the acidity and increase the potential for hangtime on the vine. With each vintage of The Max, the aim is to craft a wine that has huge ageing potential as well as rich, harmonious flavours that allow the wine to be enjoyed in its youth. The 2021 vintage is a two-way Cape Bordeaux-style blend, made up of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 40% Petit Verdot, matured in 50% new French oak barrels for 24 months before blending and bottling.
