Driftwood Artifacts Petit Verdot 2023, Margaret River

Driftwood Artifacts Petit Verdot 2023, Margaret River

Deep purple, almost black. Blackberry, blackcurrant and dark plum smash the glass, violet and liquorice in the mix. Dark chocolate and graphite underneath. Floral lift against the muscle. It knows what it is.

Full-bodied, locked in. Dark fruit, assertive fine-grained tannins, balanced acid. Blackcurrant and plum through the middle. Oak brings cedar, spice, a bit of mocha. Natural intensity, grip for days, fruit stays generous. Finish goes long, dark berries, violet and spice hanging on.

Vino Masters Score: 95/100 ★★★★★ Dark fruit, floral lift, serious tannins. Powerful and locked in. Drink now to 2036
