Petit Verdot is a variety of red wine grape, primarily used in classic Bordeaux wine blends. It ripens much later than other varieties in Bordeaux, often too late, so it has attracted more interest from winemakers in other warmer climates, such as California, Australia, and Argentina.
The varietal is known for its deep, inky color, strong tannins and rich flavors of dark fruit. It usually contributes structure and the unique flavor of violet and spice to the blend. It is often used in small quantities to give the wine more color and alcohol content.
The plant of Petit Verdot grape is small (which is what the name implies: "small green") and produces tiny berries. Despite its challenges in the vineyard, it is appreciated for its potential to produce bold, flavorful wines with high ageability. Recently, some winemakers have experimented with making varietal wines from Petit Verdot, letting the grape move from the backseat into the limelight, showcasing its intense flavors and unique character.
