Azienda Agricola Monte Frà is located in the heart of Custoza, east of Lake Garda and just 15 km from the old town of Verona, was founded by brothers Eligio and Claudio Bonomo in 1958. The firm today is composed of more than 100 hectares of property, among which, besides the namesake Monte, other estate owe their name to the same locality, such as Cà del Magro, Monte Godi, Mascarpine, Staffalo, Monte Fitti, Grottino and the beautiful Lena di Mezzo Estate in the heart of the Valpolicella Classica: Fumane.

Other hectares, then, are rented and all in the best zones of Verona. The family’s passion for wine of the Bonomo family was born in the country, whose staunch belief that good wine has its first origins in the vineyard, has meant that the first radical choices were made in its nature, leading to increase the number of vineyards in the field, a number that varies depending on the variety from 4,000 to 7,000 vines per hectare and choosing as a system of farming only the double Guyot and spurred cordon systems, which require to produce no more than 2–3 kg per plant. All the vineyards are completely irrigated through micro–irrigation, to allow the plant to be supplied in the best way in every season. The preservation of vintage characteristics are then guaranteed in the wine cellar, where through the temperature control both during pressing and during the fermentation and processing of musts optimally preserves the characteristics of each wine produced. The winery also has a loft for drying grapes, a barrel room for the aging of structure wines, a bottling plant and a storage wine cellar at a controlled temperature.

The meticulous attention that the family puts in every step of production means that their wines are imposed on domestic, European and international markets, chosen among the most representative of the typicality of Verona.

Besides the important approval of the customer quality, wines are confirmed by numerous journalistic awards, contests and guides who annually come from all over the world.
