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.
