What's this?
These are confidence labels — how sure we are that what we publish still reflects the restaurant's current practice. They are not a judgement on the restaurant; the wine and cooking are scored separately, out of 100.
- Beta — assessed and scored, but we are still confirming some details (such as the current wine list), so it is published with that caveat.
- No label — a fully confirmed entry.
- In development — not yet a review; it appears so you can see where coverage is coming.
Some restaurants change their menus often, and we cannot always keep pace. Even so, our review stands as a point-in-time assessment — it can help you decide whether to visit, and it sets out the principles of pairing wine here, which should serve you whatever is on the list when you go. If things have moved on, the Vinealto pairing app can give you up-to-date advice on the spot.
Franco's is a long-running, all-comers restaurant in Enniskillen whose kitchen roams from Italian and Irish classics to Asian-spiced seafood. Its wine list is the stronger half of the partnership — genuinely deep in Italy, Rioja and Ribera del Duero and broad across the New World, if generic by the glass and short on the aromatic, off-dry styles the spicier dishes want. It will suit a drinker who comes for a good Italian or Iberian bottle with the steaks and lamb, and who is happy to keep to the dry, high-acid whites when the chilli comes out.
