2005 Bordeaux- take your pick. Look for one's that come in the flat boxes, vs. the square ones. There are too many names to just say a few. Depends who distributes wine in your area. It's a buyer's market on the lower end from BDX right now.

BDX is primarly Merlot and Cab, so it should be win-win! BDX holds the largest percentage in my dry wine collection. Even at $15, you can buy BDX that will age a decade no problem. Also, I it's a great wine for a cigar; very traditional and classic.
