The Francone winery relies on a network of two hundred farming families who contribute to their wine production. Specifically, ninety of these families cultivate the Nebbiolo grape for Barbaresco in the municipalities of Neive and Treiso, as well as for Barolo in Barolo, Castiglione Falletto, Monforte, and La Morra. Together, they cover over fifty hectares of vineyards across these six municipalities. Francone carefully selects the grapes, vinifies them, and ages the wine first in oak barrels before further maturation in the bottle. The wine was bottled by the producer at the origin and holds the Denominazione di Origine Controllata Riserva classification.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePiedmont, which translates to \"at the foot of the mountain,\" is surrounded by the Alps and is celebrated for its dramatic, steep hills, particularly in the Langhe subregion. These hills are often enveloped in thick morning fog during the autumn, which protects the grapes and facilitates a long ripening period. Within this prestigious region lies Barbaresco, a classic area located east of Alba. Barbaresco is known for producing elegant wines that are often experienced as a more aromatic counterpart to Barolo. The 1965 vintage in this area was characterized by significant rainfall.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis wine is made exclusively from Nebbiolo, an Italian top-tier grape variety recognized for creating elegant wines with substantial structure.
