Francois is the leader of the pack; importing fine Italian wines is what he does. Have a favorite classic Italian? Chances are, he introduced it to the States years ago, though he would never boast. He is a pioneer in the field, always remembered for his charm and good cheer. Francois has organically gathered this troupe of merry men and women from all parts of the US, teaming together to bring fine, small, artisanal wines to the everyday consumer. Francois lives in the Swiss Alps, though he also calls a historic seafaring town on the North Shore of Massachusetts home. He is an adventurous freedom lover who enjoys riding his bike, finding the best lobster roll on the East Coast, hiking with his dogs, and eating focaccia in Genova.
