I died laughing on the inside and told her they don't sell first growths at World Market. My laugh of the day.

Hey "wine expert", another thing. Plural for Bordeaux IS Bordeaux, no "s".

It was probably just a typo. Laughing at wine store employees can cause one's hand to shake.

Just one more sip.

The Pavie should be <$140 at Costco, the Latour at $299.

I keep looking for 03 Sauternes in NorCal with no luck. I saw a few 03 Coutet, but that's all and they disappeared very quickly. Have they come in and I blinked and missed them, or is it still early days?

Costco - Bloomfield Hills, Michigan has the Beringer Private Reserve (@$81.99) and Robert Mondavi Private Reserve (@$95.00).

And on the low end, a great QPR, the Peter Lehman Shiraz, 2002, 89 points (91 to me) for $13.95. Great everyday grabber.

Oritz,

Union/Camden had the Larose, but was sold out of the Pichon. Still worth checking on from time to time though they restock. They also have LaForts for $66.67 I think.
