91pts(WA) The non-malolactic, steely, crisp, Wheat Thin-scented and -flavored 2008 Chardonnay Robert Young Vineyard displays honeyed pear and a hint of white currant in a crisp, lovely, fresh style. It sells for a song as well.
Readers looking for a bevy of outstanding white wines at remarkably fair prices need look no further than the copious number of selections from Chateau St. Jean. There’s a lot to like at all different price points, but the under $25 grouping is especially strong, as evidenced by the following tasting notes. This winery has long been one of the leaders in producing Loire Valley-styled Sauvignon Blancs, which they call Fume Blanc. The Pinot Noir program is less successful than the Chardonnays, but progress is evident with each new vintage. Robert Parker's Wine Advocate No 193 February 2011
