I love Cakebread Vineyard, especially the merlot, but that's a bit pricey.
For around $20 a bottle, I like Concannon Pinot Noir, but I haven't tasted what's out there now, which is a 2009 that I picked up for $9 yesterday. I can't taste it until February. Kendall Jackson is usually safe. We really enjoy a Yellow Tail Shiraz.
These price points are all over the board, BTW. It might be easier if you say what price point you want to go for in order to recommend in that category.
