French white wine values tasted in 2008

The selected French bottlings have given me much pleasure for the price. I have purchased them again for personal consumption. I would consider doing so even with a 50 percent mark-up. (My criteria are explained here.)

This page skips the tasting notes of the wines that are not imported into the USA. The complete page of french wine values can be found here.
