Try anything from Woodbridge Winery. I prefer white wines, but I hear their merlot and cabernet are good. Woodbridge is made by Robert Mondavi from grapes grown in the Central Valley of California instead of the more popularized and pricier Napa and Sonoma Valleys. Woodbridge is generally priced at $12-15 a bottle and can be found in most supermarkets with a decent wine selection.

There are tens of thousands, for heavens' sake. Stupid question.
For what it is worth, my Montreal neighbor (Quebec is a wine drinking culture)
asked me to get him from Boston a quantity of Trader Joe's "3 buck Moe's"
(J.W. Morris) California merlot, which is not available except at TJ stores in the USA where licensed, for his Christmas dinner. It was a hit when he served a bottle recently. It costs $ 3.98 including tax in Boston ($ 3.25 including tax in California) and tastes like and matches roast beef like many wines costing 3 and 4 and more times more. (In Quebec with its high taxes you cannot buy a decent red wine for less than $12 or so).

I am a Californian who is usually loyal to California wines, but lately I have been drinking a NuevoMundo Chilean cabernet/malbec blend, retails for about $15 here. I have to admit, it beats any economical red table wine California has produced in a long time.

Merlot, a safe bet. You can serve it chilled, but room temperature brings out it's best rich flavor. You can find good brands for around 12 to 25 dollars.

There are a million.
Your best bet? Get Andrea Immer Robinson's latest "Buying Guide for Everyone." It's easy to use, explains the wines, tells you what their price range is and ranks them for "value" meaning the bang for your buck.
She organizes them by grape, popularity, taste, price, you name it! Great book... available at any bookstore :)
