Frontonio is a house with an underground cave about 200 years old (3 levels) that allows us to work by gravity and handle the grapes very delicately, in addition to benefiting from perfect temperature and humidity conditions for ageing.
After a major remodeling, we can process about 70,000 kilos of grapes and age almost 50,000 liters of wine in various containers: cement, oak foudres and barrels of different sizes up to 600 liters (demi-muid).
They have aged their wines here since 2017, 2019 is the first vintage that has been made entirely in the new winery and in which we have been able to vinify all the plots separately. There are 45 wines in total with which we will make different blends.
"Mount vineyards, a cave and a dream: Recover the tradition. We do not want rules, we believe in our land, our grapes and our senses. We are Bodegas Frontonio."
