Oh no, young vintages in F?? Huge fail!

Looked similar to what we had last year and it was the only disappointing part of the flight. Fingers crossed for the flight back.

I read in the QF magazine they are training wine sommeliers to work in F. Can't see the point of that unless the quality improves.

Just 2 weeks ago we had coffee here several times, and lunch in the restaurant on the other side of the Square. You look like you are enjoying it as much as we did.
