Sans Petit Verdot is one of five grape varieties that make up traditional Bordeaux blends. In cool years the variety does not fare well, which is one reason that it has become less popular amongst the Bordeaux producers, however, the variety seems to thrive in warm years â€?where it develops exceptional depth and complexity. Wayne Thomas consistently succeeded with the variety in McLaren Vale’s Mediterranean climate.
