Cantina Frentana is a cooperative association of about 500 winemakers born in 1960, mostly family-run, who take care of 1000 hectares of vineyards on the Frentane hills.
This strip of territory extends between the slopes of the Majella and the marvelous Costa dei Trabocchi in southern Abruzzo. The flourishing calcareous soil, the alternation of sea and land breezes, the particular mild climate of the coast make this area suited to top quality viticulture. The winery mainly produces wines deriving from native vines using the most modern technologies to obtain fine and unique wines, capable of surprising even the most refined palate.
