Chateau St. Jean Fumé Blanc, La Petite Étoile Vineyard, Russian River Valley, 2002
Ummm, errr... a tad over-oaked and slightly yeast heavy for my taste. Creamy and rich... I would have preferred something more acidic and bone dry. Pretty good, though.

Charles Shaw Wines - Give Me A Break
Yes, the wine is cheap. It's value-priced, fine for large parties, but I will not be buying more. Don't believe the internet rumors.

Château Beau-Séjour Bécot, 2000 -- with a tip of the cap to Ermitaño
The 2000 is good... but consider a stab at the 1998 Château Beau-Séjour Bécot... you still may be able to find some bargains.
