I was there with my boyfriend and a couple of friends, December/23 It was a lovely visit. Wine tasting was presented by Laura, super passionate girl that showed and explained us a lot of things. She added a personal touch, telling us about some special bottles she tasted with friends. I highly recommend the tasting and the tour. Ah! And they have good prices and discounts for quantity. Totally worthy.

A very nice winery with a small museum. The explanations about the winemaking process during the tour and the wines during the tasting were clear and very interesting. The staff was very helpful, friendly, and kind. The wines were also great!

I am passionate about wine, I participate in numerous tastings throughout the year, sometimes I choose the winery by word of mouth, other times by the taste of a bottle that I happen to try, other times by chance. The tasting at Francone was given to me for my birthday and, looking back, I must say that it was a crazy gift. As I told the Francone brothers, I don't remember ever having a perfect tasting like this one; 7 wines, 7 absolute delights! Praise for how these people work and honour such a beautiful and exhausting profession is never enough. Their grandparents, their parents and, now, they allow us to enjoy their passion without limits. Thank you for the beautiful and exhausting visit, thank you for your wonderful wines!

The most enjoyable wine tour/tasting I’ve experienced! My daughter and I booked the “King and Queens” tour, which involved a fascinating glimpse into the history, methods, and equipment employed by Francone over the past 50+ years. Valeria was an incredible host/guide — highly knowledgeable and personable. The 5 wines we tasted (plus a bonus sixth) were all Barbarescos from their top labels (Gallina and Riserva) from various years, and one Barolo. Valeria spent a lot of time helping us understand the many factors that caused each of them to differ markedly from one another. We had the pleasure to meet with Fabrizio as well (one of the brothers who own/run Francone). Highly recommended!

The Francone winery in the Langhe is a true gem to discover. The visit was extremely interesting, with a knowledgeable guide who accompanied us through the history and winemaking tradition of the Francone family. The vineyards and the winery are enchanting, and the passion for wine is evident in every detail. What is particularly striking is the quality of the wines, all excellent and with a truly advantageous quality-price ratio. We had the opportunity to taste a variety of labels, all of the highest quality, but with very affordable prices compared to other wineries in the area. An experience that I highly recommend to anyone who wants to discover the authentic flavors of the Langhe. Highly recommended!
