Petit Verdot is one of the types of red wine grapes. Though the origin is from the Bordeaux region of France during the 18th centuryhttp://www.winelit.slsa.sa.gov.au/grapeswines.htm, currently these are added in small amounts to the New World Wines to add tannin, color and flavor.

Serving Information
Petit Verdot's flavors range from spicy blackberry, plum to peppery with a fragrant bouquet. The flavor of Syrah is affected by the softness and the age taken for the grape to ripe. The more aged ones taste better.Due to its spicy and peppery taste flavor, Petit Verdot is often paired well with red meats and aged cheese.
Mostly Petit Verdot is used to add color and flavor to the blends. This is also useful to stiffen the Cabernet Sauvignon blends.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Petit_verdot
