Petit Verdot
Vineyard
This Petit Verdot was grown on the J. Lohr Home Ranch in the warmer Region III Estrella District of Paso Robles. The block was planted to an east-west row orientation in 2008 with clone 400 on low-vigor 420A rootstock. The soils are coarse, loamy Arbuckle-San Ysidro complex. A highly fruitful variety, Petit Verdot requires extensive fruit thinning to achieve luxury wine quality. Our program involves pinching clusters from young shoots in early spring, followed by dropping to one cluster per shoot prior to veraison. This protocol favors good canopy development and allows sunlight to envelope every berry on every cluster, resulting in exceptional color and flavor development in the fruit.
