I don't really know what price range I'm looking at. I'm willing to spend around $50, but what I'm really after is a good cabernet recommendation for someone who has a discerning palette for red wines. I know he likes cabernet, but that's about it. I would ask him, but I'm buying a gift to celebrate him passing the bar exam, so I want it to be a surprise.

Jordan Cab is wonderful and right in your price range.
Good luck on the Bar!
