Domaine Champagnon Fleurie 2006

Last of the mixed case from Nick Dobson.

Abundant black cherries, chalky finish. Loads of large, bark-shaving shaped sediment, as seems to be the case with relatively old Beaujolais (tartrate crystals? Very little about this online). Very agreeable all round. It is a pity that I can't bring myself to order more regularly from Dobson. Yet to have a bad - or even mediocre - bottle from him. The lack of cheaper superplonk means I don't split orders when I should. If I was loaded I would order more from the likes of Dobson, Yapp etc but still go for Majestic/Wine Society for the bulk stuff.
