Grape flavoured sweets/bubblegum with a splash of vinegar acidity
Not light or graceful.
Not too dissimilar from the French Connection Saumur-Champigny in terms of it tasting like cheap french plonk

Shez,

Talking Beaujolais and the village / domaine and regional gamay wines

Before you joined this outfit, I did warn everyone about Georges Duboeuf - very sorry yoy got caught. '09 Jolybeau is good stuff from a decent producer.

Of the big firms - Chanson is quite good for Fleurie and Morgon, also Bouchard Pierre & Fils make half decent Fleurie.

The incredible step up comes when you can find them from the little people.

I rate this one as you know - Fleurie '09 made by Domaine des Nugues.

But when you get to the special gamays for the master class, the money can be much stronger, and the wine on a very different level to Monsieur Duboeuf's bubble gum stuff - That was a tad harsh Shez......but don't buy anymore Duboeuf' Eh! Support the little people :)

Will be sure to take heed of your words Mr D

Picked it up as a replacement bottle at Maj
Take a look at the Cellar tracker reviews for it - apart from mine they are very misleading!
People scoring it 90pts!!! Wth?!!!
