The F.A. 206 cuvee, is a blend of 70% Carignan, 19% Grenache, and 11% Cabernet Sauvignon, all from small yields, and aged six months in used French oak. Fruit-driven, with ripe, sweet black currant characteristics along with hints of fennel and spice box is the 2001 F.A. 206. With additional texture and fat, it will drink well for 2-3 years. This is an outstanding value.
