Literally just grabbed this off the shelf tonight and I'm rather impressed.

Any Cab suggestions out there?

I drink the cheap stuff. I do hold myself to a higher standard than the box though.

Chateau St. Jean makes some decent stuff.

I had some of this tonight.

I am by no means a wine snob, but I have a bottle of that and thouroughly enjoyed it with the FB tonight.

Would love to talk vino with you, but I've got to get to sleep.

As far as reds, I've been in a big Italian mood lately. My favorite wine for the value:

I like visiting wineries in Sonoma and Napa. I visited Chateau St Jean last fall and bought several of their wines. They are good. The winery is beautiful, but they do charge for tasting. That seems to be the case in most places now. Just curious since you live in L.A. if you ever go to Napa and Sonoma. I'll also go to the wineries north of Santa Barbara sometimes.

My most recent Cab was from Torciano (Tuscany). It was good, but I doubt I'll buy it again. Long story, but their customer service is terrible.

At your house or a liquor store? Why would you get a cab from 2007?

For regular occaisons, entertaining, RedTree makes a tasty Cab. The snob in me didn't want to drink it since it had a screw cap, but it was a gift. Then i found myself buying it in the store. Their Pinot Noir isn't bad either. Terrazas makes a pretty tasty Malbec and Cab...they are Argentinian and very tasty for the price. ON another note, i find myself constantly underwhelmed by the Australian wines.
