Francone
A magical combination of sheer determination and passion for winemaking, in a unique setting: this typifies Cantina Francone in Neive, a stone’s throw from Barbaresco in the rolling hills of the Langhe.
Our roots lie in a family tradition, consolidated over time, with a strong bond to the local area. Our vision focuses on modernisation, and great attention to customer service and hospitality in the winery.
