Types of Wine: Petite Verdot Wine
Type is petifoliate leaf used in grape growing for wine production chiefly in the Loire valley of France for Bordeaux red wine. Petite Verdot has been used by new age winemakers to add body, zest, intensity and nose bouquet for red wines of lesser varietal grape origins. Petite Verdot can be used in wine making to add roundness on the palate and coat the mouth feel with more in the taste spectrum. Petite Verdot ripens late and adds tannins and flavor to red wine blends. Though rarely found in a hundred per cent bottling, Petite Verdot is grown outside Bordeaux in France mainly for integrating quality dynamics in Australian, New Zealand, Californian and South African wine blends.
