    I’ll start off... my fav is Joseph Phelps Insignia. Wonderful blend. Anyone have a reco for similar blend? (I prefer the mellow/slightly sweet flavor with mild tannins).

    Dominus and Ridge Monte Bello have somewhat similar blend approaches.

    We don't often drink wines in this price range, but I find the Vivino app to be useful. It has taste and flavor profiles, which you can then use to try and cross-correlate to other wines you may enjoy.

    As you use the app more, then one can build up a library of wines to try/avoid.

    Continuum, Dancing Hares, Bryant, Dalla Valle, Pahlmeyer, Verite, and, of course, the list of old worlds is lengthy. Shafer Hillside Select is also a great cab in the same class, but exhibits similar to your taste profile.

    Thanks, will look.
    Had some Charles Woodson “Interception” cab last night. Swill, but growing up Raiders fan it had to be tried.
