Robert Parker gives 2007 Artefact 93 points

In Issue #186 of Wine Advocate, Robert Parker said of Relic’s Artefact:

I enjoyed the 2007 Artifact [sic], which includes Petit Verdot and Syrah in the blend. Deep black currant, licorice, white chocolate, earthy, smoky notes are accompanied by full-bodied flavors, sweet tannins, and good freshness as well as precision. Dense and chewy, consumers can enjoy this impressively- endowed 2007 over the next 10-15 years.

But perhaps the most inspiring words came at the end:

This tiny estate has a small production, but the quality of its wines is very high. - Robert Parker - 93 points

We are both humbled and inspired by these words!
