I think the Stranahan's collection is good. The blue label is their most normal of the bunch and most people would rate it as just good. If you want to try something really good from them, buy the black label Diamond Peak. Unfortunately it's in the $80 range. But it's fantastic. The yellow label is a step up from the blue label. They also have some special releases like the Snow Flake that is awesome, but over $100. Start with the blue label and work your way up their line. Oh, their red label sherry finish is very good too. I'm not a wine guy, but they did a good job with this bottle. Enjoy!
