You won't be embarrassed opening this under $14 Napa Cab...

The Avalon 2008 Napa valley Cab is a great example of the bargains that can be found in the $15 and under range. This wine exhibits cherry and dark berry flavors, along with tannins that are more smooth than expected. The hint of merlot helps give the wine more of a Bordeaux drinkability at a young age.
