I like Kendall Jackson. It’s just shy of $20.

I thought it was $9 on sale for a 5 liter box.

J. Lohr cab is my fav. Not bad priced, have gotten it at Costco for $9.95.

I have found some very tasty ‘Victor’ Merlot and Cabernet for $10 to $16 (Italian)

I would rather spend $40 on a good bottle of Scotch with four times the alcohol content of a bottle of wine; I figure I’m ahead. Plus, with less carbohydrate; I make up on with good appetizers.
Is it 5:00 PM yet?

I think the article is pretty darn close with the 20 dollar thing.

I wish I could help, but I don’t know a great deal about wine. Being in college, my typical buy is a big bottle of Yellow Tail Merlot. Kendall Jackson is for special occasions. Hopefully someone else can help you out.

Victor has a Pinot Noir that runs about $16 that is sold under the ‘Gabrielle’ label. It us under-priced and could easily be $25 or $30 a bottle. We loved it.

http://wine.woot.com is my favorite stop for wine - typically slightly above the $20 mark, but counting shipping and winery direct, it seems worth it to me. If you do stop there, read the discussion. Frequently you’ll be talking to the vintner as well as references to ratings and previous offerings.

I worked security for Redwood Creek at several fairs and food tastings. Good and inexpensive.
