I agree, some great wines that should be classics and cheap for what you're getting(YMMV).
2005 Duhart-Milon Rothschild (Pauillac) - RP says "it reveals a character not dissimilar from its renowned sibling, Lafite-Rothschild" ~$70
2005 Destieux (St Emilion) ~$40
2005 Chateau Lagrange (St. Julien) ~$60
2005 Clos Du Jaugueyron (Margaux) ~$100 (I bought some of these as futures when they were half this price, not sure they're worth $100 now released, but they are always excellent wines IMO)
2005 Chateau D'Issan (Margaux) ~$70
2005 Pontet Canet (Pauillac) This gets my 'must buy', not cheap at ~$130 but you will be rewarded in 10+ years I am sure.
The Sauternes look good too, they take forever to mature though.

Oh, and pick up some Pavie too
