Michael David Winery Inkblot Petit Verdot 2022

Michael David Winery Inkblot Petit Verdot 2022 is an exceptionally bold, "teeth-staining" red wine that showcases Petit Verdot as a standalone varietal rather than its traditional role as a blending grape. True to its "Inkblot" name, it is deeply concentrated and opaque in the glass, appearing almost "midnight" or "deep midnight" in hue. The 2022 vintage offers a rich aromatic profile of blackberry and dark cherry mingled with hints of fig preserves. On the palate, it is powerful and full-bodied, featuring voluptuous layers of plum, dark cocoa, and toasted caramel flavors. It is framed by a high level of tannin and a prolonged, complex finish inspired by savory licorice notes.
