St. Emilion: Corbin
Pomerol: Nothing representative. De sales, which is not really a good example.
Margaux: Giscours* and Siran
St. Julien: Lagrange
Pauillac: Grand Puy Lacoste*
St. Estephe: Calon segur or Phelan Segur
Graves: Malarctic La Graviere
(* will just break budget)

How about La Dominique for Pomerol? Though I don’t really know what their style is nowadays I used to love them back in the day.

I liked the '05 Clos Rene from Pomerol which I paid around $40. Not sure about other vintages.

And there’s lots of good choices from Pessac. My favorites under $59 are:
La Louviere
Larrivet-Haut-Brion
Malartic-Lagravière
Brown

Although La Dominique is close to the border of Pomerol, it´s still a Saint-Emilion !

Is Chasse Spleen more than $50? A big +1 for Potensac. Clos Puy Arnaud for Lalande is a stunning right bank-ish wine. Phelan Segur is a stunning value in St Estephe.

I think most agree that “little” doesn’t mean immediate pleasure. These wines still reward patience. Find some back vintages to experience their true character. IMO.
