The outrageously exceptional as well as fairly-priced 2008 Fume Blanc La Petite Etoile is one of the finest examples of this cuvee they have yet made. Abundant aromas of honeyed citrus, melons, nectarines, citrus oil, and crushed rocks (which provides minerality), a light straw/green color, a medium to full-bodied mouthfeel, and loads of fruit result in an amazing white wine. Even more remarkable, the 2008 represents the 30th vintage of this reference point of California Sauvignon Blanc. Enjoy it over the next 1-2 years. This winery produces some exceptional bargain-priced wines and consistently does an enviable job with Sauvignon Blanc, or as they call it, Fume Blanc. There has been a long legacy of top-notch Fume Blancs produced ever since veteran winemaker Richard Arrowood was fashioning the wines at Chateau St.-Jean in the 1970s. Chateau St. Jean produces four distinctive styles of Chardonnay. My favorites tend to vary with the vintage, and in 2007, the Belle Terre Vineyard came out on top.Tel.
