Petit Verdot first gained fame as a blending grape, but there are now numerous phenomenal standalone Petit Verdot wines, such as this one. The fruit for this wine is sourced from our Currency Creek vineyards and picked later in the season, once the ideal flavour development is achieved. Fermented for approximately 7 days , it is then pressed into a combination of French and American oak. The wine was then oak aged for 24 months to soften the tannins and add vanillin, toasty flavours.

($237/6pk at Dan Murphy's or $189.60/6pk from Winery)

    Might grab 6 bottles to check it out ….24 mths in barrel and if it's the Shaw I'm thinking off it might be nice wine. I've done well with vinomofo deals , will try these guys.

  $237/6pk at Dan Murphy

  Per Dan Murphys this is shipped direct from the supplier, so subsequently are behest to suppliers pricing. I wouldn't attached any value per the comparative pricing in the title.

  For those who have not tried a Petit verdot before, it is usually a blending grape and has a distinct taste (i.e. probably not good for cooking, nor good if you don't know that you like it). I know I don't like it. Per wikipedia

  …its aromas have been likened to banana and pencil shavings.

  Cheap random wine is not a deal. This is an ad for your wine club.

    Re-reading OP, I realise they are associated and are in control of the comparative pricing through Dan Murphys, so have negged as it is misleading. Happy to remove if the OP shows they are providing a true bargain.

      Hi Ajole,
      It's ok. We did add the wineries price to be fully fair.

  Interesting that the winemaker is still using cork instead of stelvin.
  Cheers
