California wine prices

Mar 27, 2005 2 Replies

Found a $25 Cab at the wine store, was dreadful. I've been sticking to under $30 wines, just to be frugal....No problem finding decent AU, French, German, Italian wines, except for exotics, viz., eiswein. What is the deal here, the CA cabs and blends seem so expensive...Recommendations, links, etc.?


Alexander Valley Cabernet 2000 DeLoach Cabernet 2001

Both are under $20.00 and I think show nicely.

Don't assume that because you didn't like this particular $25 Cabernet that all California Cabernets at a similar price will be the same. I think there are lots of good choices in that price range.
