Cantina Frentana is a cooperative company made up of aproximately 500 winegrowers, mainly small family companies, who cultivate about 1000 (about 2250 acres) hectares of vineyards on the Frentana hills: a strip of territory that extends between the last slopes of the Majella mountain and the magnificent Costa dei Trabocchi, in the south of Abruzzo.
A land of vineyards and olive groves, crossed by creeks flowing between wooded valleys.
The generous limestone soil, the gentle alternation of sea and land breezes, the mitigating action of the sea enhance the vocation of this area to a high-quality viticulture, focused almost entirely on native vines.
The nose is full of flowers, fruit and salt, with aromas of peonies, pomegranates, figs and milk chocolate, all beneath a dusting of salt crystals. The dense, rich palate is heavy with berries and chocolate, before an enlivening finish of abundant salt and pepper. Danielle Callegari, 11/1/2024.
