...in past years, I can recommend you try. I haven't tasted the current releases yet. Costco has a pretty good selection.
Dasche
Girard
Edmeades
Cline
Four Vines
Rosenblum and Ravenswood (some years their $10 vintner's blends, or whatever they call it is ok - most of their other better ones are over $20)
Rancho Zabaco is widely distributed but I usually don't care much for it.

  ...has at least 3 vinyard designated wines that are more expensive and much better than their Old Vines. I think I saw their Big Break at Costco recently.
  
  Rosenblum has about 20 different vinyard designated wines and some are better than others - most are over $20. Hendry is one of my favorites.
  
  Ravenswood has disappointed me in the past few years but I think I've seen some good reviews of their current releases. When I'm back East and the zin pickings are slim, I usally opt for their Vintners Blend.
