Drogheria e Locanda Franci: Charming Residences, Historic Wine Shop, and Gourmet Dining (Montalcino, Val d'Orcia)
The Drogheria e Locanda Franci offers a unique stay experience in the heart of Montalcino, the center of the famous Brunello wine. This charming property combines several "Residences" scattered throughout the historic center (such as Locanda Franci, Locanda di Sopra, Casa del Dago, and Villa La Fortezza) with a renowned gastronomic spot, the ancient "Drogheria" (Grocery) transformed into a wine shop and restaurant. It is the perfect choice for those who wish to immerse themselves in the history, Tuscan architecture, and high-level food and wine of the Val d'Orcia.
The Residences: Tuscan Style and Fortress View
The rooms and apartments have been skillfully renovated, maintaining the authentic rustic Tuscan style with exposed beams, wooden floors, and stone, combined with luxurious comfort. Many accommodations enjoy spectacular views of the Montalcino Fortress or the medieval village. In-room services include Free Wi-Fi Connection, air conditioning, and, in some suites or the Villa La Fortezza, the addition of a whirlpool tub or private outdoor spaces.
Restaurant, Wine Shop, and Historic Cellar
The beating heart of the property is the "Drogheria," where breakfast is served (with local products and homemade cakes) and which acts as a restaurant for lunch and dinner. The restaurant offers Tuscan specialties masterfully reinterpreted, using high-quality raw materials, often focusing on game. A vast collection of wines, with a particular emphasis on Brunello di Montalcino, is housed in the Cantina Franci, carved out of the ancient well, offering guests an ideal place for guided tastings and pairings.
Services and Relaxation in the Village
The Locanda and Residences offer guests various services that complete the experience in the village. These include: the possibility of organizing wine tastings, the nearby wine shop with a selection of local and international wines, and bicycle rental to explore the Val d'Orcia surroundings. The property also provides Car Parking and an electric vehicle charging station nearby, facilitating visits to the historic center.
