Your favorite red wine in UC?

Simple question (and clearly not the free hooch).

What red do you prefer when paying at the UC?

Do all UCs actually stock the same wines?

Agreed,

The "Artemis" is one of the better $15 wine values as well. In CA it's priced around $45 retail. If you can still find it, Far Niente Chardonnay in the whites

I like Stag's Leap and Jordan. I wish they would try serving them in the air (I know, it ain't gonna happen) but I wonder if they might not be well suited for in-flight conditions (humidity, temperature).
