Stimson Estate Cellars

Merlot is simply better. Estate Cellars markets a better than average merlot. For stats you don't need (and to see their boring label) visit here. For taste, go pick up a bottle. Four stars.

Red Bicyclette

$3 more than what I normally like to pay. But SMOOTH.
Synthetic cork. I dig the natural corks a lil' more. THE LABEL IS OUTSTANDING.
Besides, the wine is foreign. We all need to expand our horizons don't we? 5 stars.
p.s. my ten speed was blue, not red, and matched the lawn furniture.

Crane Lake

Crane Lake Merlot 2003 does not suck. However, it's not fantastic. Therefore at $3.99 per bottle - you guessed it. I bought another one.
