Cabernet Sauvignon is the world’s most widely planted red wine grape, and for good reason. It grows well in warm and moderate climates across six continents, produces structured wines that age gracefully, and has a flavour profile – blackcurrant, cedar, dark fruit, firm tannins – that most people find immediately appealing.

It’s also a grape where price correlates with quality more reliably than most. A $15 Cabernet will almost always be competent. A $25 Cabernet can be genuinely impressive. Here are the best bottles under $30 that consistently over-deliver.
