Gosh...there are so many great ones I haven't tried. I guess I'd have to do the expected thing and go with one of them big ass French things...like a Chateau-Margaux from the 40s or some such thing. You know, funny thing about wine...I'd rather be plesantly surprised/delighted by a $15 bottle than to quaff a $200 bottle. I don't have $200 taste buds. I wouldn't go so far as to say that a $200 bottle would be wasted on me, but come on...it's grape juice. I've had plenty of bottles in the $40 range that I'd be delighted to drink till the end of my days. But hey, if you're buying...
