The wine

Las Alas de Frontonio Garnacha is a red wine that stands out for its elegance, complexity and authentic expression of Garnacha, an emblematic variety of Spain. This wine comes from the Valdejalón area, a lesser-known territory but with great winemaking potential in Aragon, where the unique terroir and continental climate combine to create wines of distinctive character.

Made with a deep respect for tradition and a focus on quality, Las Alas de Frontonio is the result of a meticulous process of selecting grapes from old vineyards, some of which are more than 50 years old. These vineyards, located on slopes and terraces at various altitudes, provide a complexity and concentration of flavors that are reflected in each bottle.

The 2019 vintage is characterized by its intense and bright ruby red color, an invitation to discover the rich aromas and flavors it offers. On the nose, the wine displays a complex aromatic spectrum, with notes of ripe red fruits such as cherry and raspberry, complemented by touches of spices, aromatic herbs and a subtle wood background, the result of its aging in barrels that respects and enhances the characteristics of Grenache.

In the mouth, Las Alas de Frontonio Garnacha 2019 reveals a silky texture and exceptional balance. The acidity is perfectly integrated, providing freshness, while the soft, ripe tannins contribute to its structure and depth. Red fruit flavors intertwine with spicy and mineral nuances, leading to a long and persistent finish that invites reflection.

This wine is a faithful expression of its origin and a tribute to Grenache, demonstrating the capacity of this variety to produce high quality wines with great personality. Las Alas de Frontonio Garnacha 2019 is ideal to accompany a wide range of dishes, from red meats and game dishes to aged cheeses and Mediterranean dishes, but it is also enjoyed wonderfully on its own, allowing its complexities to unfold and be fully appreciated.

Las Alas de Frontonio is more than a wine; is a project that seeks to rescue and value the identity and wine heritage of Valdejalón, offering wine lovers the opportunity to discover the excellence of Garnacha in its purest and most elegant expression.

Bodegas Frontonio

Bodegas Frontonio is named after Saint Frontonio, patron saint of the north-eastern Spanish town of Epila. Legend says that after Saint Frontonio was beheaded by the Romans, his body was buried in a cemetery and his head cast into the River Ebro. Miraculously his head was found upstream on the bank of the River Jalon, close to where the Bodegas Frontonio winery is located. Exactly as they're presented, they're the wine of a particular land, the résumé of a landscape. A passion...
