Just to be frank, Cabs, especially American ones, have gotten outrageously expensive.
So I would say that for 20 bucks its certainly not a bad value.
Look at places like Argentina and Chile who are producing some excellent value, as well as Australia . Also some Italian Super Tuscans that are primarily Cab based can sometimes be good value (although a lot of STs have gotten outrageous too). South Africa too (although I like pinotage from SF).
I think Mascota Vineyards out of Argentina makes a nice cab in the 20s
True Myth out of Paso Robles in Cali makes a real affordable one
If you like Cab, you might love an Australian Shiraz, both Penfolds and Mollydooker make some excellent ones at various price points.
At a higher price point but EXCELLENT Quality Price Ratio, Le Petit Clos Clos Apalta is a chilean wine made in a bordeaux blend style that is really great for a 50ish dollar bottle. Probably decant that one
