Request a Case OrderA surprisingly complex and layered chilly red, thanks to the fantastic Negrette grape and the vineyard work of Anne and the Arbeau family. Negrette specialists, it's all they do!
Spiced, layered, grippable, and rippable! It wants to be invited to Thanksgiving! đŠ
The vineyard is located on a slight slope where the soil is mostly boulbĂšne, a type of acidic siliceous and sand-clay soil found throughout the area. 50% of the vineyards are planted with NĂ©grette, a variety that, as decreed by the AOP Fronton, must comprise 50-70% of a growerâs vineyard.
Anne says that one goal is to focus on traditional varieties and another is âto increase their own productionâ. Since 2000, âa special selection of old vines has been grown, harvested, and vinified separately to make a limited production AOP Frontonâ. In 2010 both rosĂ© and red wines were produced using 100% Negrette.
