Petit Rouge is a red wine grape variety that is native to the Aosta Valley in Northwestern Italy. It is most often used in blended wines, but can also be found in varietal wines. The wine produced from Petit Rouge grapes is typically ruby red in color, with a medium body and acidity. It has a fruity flavor profile, often featuring notes of red fruit like raspberries and cherries, as well as subtle spice or earthy undertones. Petit Rouge wines are typically consumed young and are not well-suited to long-term aging.
