Red

  • Petit Rouge stands as one of the Valle d’Aosta‘s most ancient and significant grape varieties.
  • It shares a familial bond with Fumin and maintains secondary connections with many other red grape varietals in the region, including Cornalin, Roussin, and Neyret de Saint-Vincent.
  • The grape, historically referred to as Picciourouzo, was documented as Petit Rouge by Gatta in 1838, solidifying its longstanding presence in the valley’s viticultural landscape.
