Fregellae

Palazzo Tronconi is a winery in the heart of Arce in Ciociaria, where the ancient Arcese vines so famous in the Kingdom of Naples are grown: the Lecinaro, the Black Ulivello, the Pampanaro, the Capolongo, the Maturano Bianco, in addition to the Malvasia Puntinata, the Moscato di Terracina and Syrah. Wines produced according to biodynamic agriculture respecting the rhythms of the earth, the sun and the rains. Authentic wines purified from all external agents that undermine their naturalness, and the truest characteristic expression. An ambitious challenge that starts from the wines of the past to create the wines of the future. Palazzo Tronconi is also synonymous with hospitality in the historic medieval center of Arce with its Osteria and its Rooms, immersed in the emotional context of the vineyard.

The Pampanaro, Maturano, Capolongo varieties that give life to Fregellae are grown in the new Sant’Eleuterio vineyard in the Tramonti di Arce district, on clayey limestone hills at 150 meters above sea level. The harvest is manual in mid-September and the vinification follows the dictates of biodynamic agriculture, that is by means of spontaneous alcoholic and malolactic fermentation with indigenous yeasts, without any clarification or filtration. The wine ages 20 days on the skins of Pampanaro, after which it ferments in cement tanks and ages in 500-liter acacia barrels for 12 months. A full-bodied wine that goes well with fish as well as meat dishes
