The Sierra Vista that I recommended above. It is delightful, refreshing, oak free, Californian, and around $10.

Sorry, IK, I guess I read too fast and missed it!
I have some credit in BevMo that I'm trying to use up, but it seems that all the chardonnay choices you listed BevMo does not carry...

Bevmo does tend to have decent prices. But what I found out when speaking with their wine buyer is that b/c the size of their stores, they are considered a grocery establishment. This is the type of liquor license they have. Consequently, they can only obtain wines that distributors have available to grocers.
So, there are definite pros and cons. Prices are generally better than Safeway, Raley's/Bel-Air, Albertson's, etc. But they cannot carry some of the wines you would find at a smaller wine shop.
