the Fronton wine region (Côtes du Frontonnais prior to 2007) is near Toulouse in the Tarn-et-Garonne and Haute-Garonne departments. The vines are grown on alluvium gravel terraces on a bedrock of molasse. Ocean and Mediterranean-type climates meet here and although the varietal range is varied – Gamay, Merille, Cinsault, Mauzac – the dominant grape is Negrette.

Grape varieties: Vins rouges et rosés: négrette, cabernet-sauvignon, cabernet franc, malbec, syrah, mérille, fer servadou, gamay, cinsaut, mauzac

The wines of this appellation

Fronton can be either red or rosé. The red wines are powerful with a ruby-red hue. They are well-structured and elegant with aromas of blackcurrant, raspberry, prune, floral notes (peony, violet) and spices (pepper). The rosés are both distinguished and easy-drinking wines. On the palate, they are aromatic with slightly acidulous notes (raspberry, blackcurrant, peach, pear, acacia blossom). The reds pair well with cassoulet, grilled red meats or game. The rosés can be served with fatty fish, barbecues or mixed salads.
