So many different cabs. Hard to find much in napa for under 20. Whether or not it's worth it is a completely unanswerable question. The Washington cabs are really nice if you like fruit forward, something softer. You won't get the tannins like the paso cabs but beauty is in eye of beholder, or taste buds for this soliloquy. Ask the guy at whatever wine shop you frequent to give you some ideas. They may even have some tasting if you go to one in a decent area.

Cameron Hughes Wine will have an ocassional LOT for under $20 but most real good cabs are under 40 and thats the best bargains out there. The Costco in Austin at the Arboretum stocks alot of Cameron Hughes wines or you can go on line and get them thru on line store.

Carmen Gold Reserve ($17.99) is fantastic.

Also, anyone with a Total Wine around them: The front of the store to the right (or it's that way in Houston heights location) has all the highly rated wines together. Ranging from $8-200. Most are around $10-30. It's basically a cliff notes for the entire store. Wife and I have had some fantastic stuff in the $15 range. Really cool concept.

$20 or close enough to list

Joel Gott 815
Alexander Valley Cab
Educated Guess (Napa, North Coast is bad)
Any of the Kirkland Signature Series Cabs


I’m going a different route than others here regarding Bonanza, it’s an attempt to make shite grapes taste like Caymus. It’s awful.

I'm more of a beer guy (BJCP certified, homebrewer, yadayada) but I've been killing Members Mark Cab. Can't beat it for 7 bucks a bottle IMO

I love Caymus and will never buy Bonanza again. Saying that, someone else might love it. Hell my favorite bourbon right now is Willett Pot Still, and a lot of bourbon drinkers don't like it.
