“A rich and aromatic Fronton—a must-try!”

“This blend, composed of 60% Négrette and 40% Syrah, perfectly embodies the balance between Atlantic and Mediterranean influences that characterizes Fronton. This wine is brimming with aromas of vanilla and truffle, with fragrant tannins and complex nuances. The spicy notes of black fruit are concentrated and full-bodied. Best enjoyed starting in 2026. Made from organically grown grapes.” (Wine Enthusiast 2024).
