My grandma bought me a case of Castle Rock Pinot Noir (2011) that is going down well.   :dunno:

Their Petite Syrah is really good, but I can't hardly ever find it.

If I'm having some people over my go to party wines are the Kirkland Napa Valley Chard 1.5L from Costco for about $10 and Liberte Paso Robles Cab from Trader Joe's, also about $10. Pop the cab 30 to 60 minutes before your ready to drink it. Opens up really well.

everything grown in paso is too high in alcohol %.  you could almost say everything in ca, but the central coast is especially bad about it.

i've wanted to see the pacific northwest for a long time, and my wife has family up that way, so i'd like to at some point.  i do like wine.
