This is the second edition of the "F" standing for France, consisting of grenache and syrah, and bordeaux varietals as well, which is odd, but not unheard of. I was fairly underwhelmed by this wine. Not a whole lot to the nose other than pomm/cran juice and black pepper. The pallet was also hollow and lacking depth, soft tannin structure, with notes of creme-de-casis and wild cherry. The finish was again, lost to the wind. I'd rather purchase an equal priced Rhone wine, but we all have our preferences.

F2 is the big Grenache/Bordeaux blend. Young with big fruit but balanced with a pretty nice finish. Not my favorite style but this would be a huge crowd pleaser for the price!
