The grapes are sourced from old vines (80 years old) grown at high altitude (1,030m). Ripe red fruit, such as raspberries and cherries, is complemented by spicy notes and a touch of floral undertones. This wine is medium-bodied with well-integrated tannins.
We work with sustainably cultivated, dry-farmed bush vines in traditional mountain vineyards. Our wines are crafted in small quantities and aged in historic caves. Frontonio Supersonico is named after Saint Frontonio, the patrón saint of Épila, a town in Valdejalón, North-East Spain, where it is produced. Legend has it that Saint Frontonio was beheaded by the Romans. His body was buried in a cemetery and his head was thrown into the River Ebro near Zaragoza. Miraculously, his head was later found going upstream along the banks of the River Jalón in Épila. Likewise, this limited production of “micro” wine is the result of rowing against the stream. It is also something of a miracle. It comes from a humble garage where it is made by Fernando Mora and Mario López without any fuss.
And what does Grenache like to eat? It loves herbs and spices, so go wild! Rosemary, pepper and cinnamon all work really well.
