Washington Cabs for Dad

What to buy the old man for Father's Day? He already has slippers, bathrobe, ties, laptop, and a subscription to 500 cable channels, doesn't want an Ipod and doesn't know what a Nano is. How about something he will really enjoy? Nooo! Not a subscription to the Wine Spectator! Something that will give him pleasure - how about some Washington State Cab - masculine wine for big boys:) I've limited myself to wines that are available in wine shops and supermarkets even if some of the pricier ones are very hard to find. Here are my recommendations:
