Pino noir by Ecco Domani is a pretty goon red.

Boones farm.

Do you have a Trader Joe's near you? Two-Buck-Chuck is decent according to my parents. They also like Concho Y Toro and Yellow Tail? I think it is.

The $2Chucks reds are better than the whites, imho. My local wine warehouse sells Ballatore for $6.50 - it's a fantastic sparkling wine to have with dessert, so we always bring a cold bottle to dinner parties.

I plus one's mtn's post about "Charles Shaw," aka, "two buck chuck." It's really more like 3 or 4 buck chuck, but you can get BOTH bottles for under 10 bucks, and it ain't bad...ain't bad at all.

Beware, you WILL need a bottle opener/corkscrew.

(I actually have no idea if it's any good. Sam's sells it and I just like the label)

It's not bad. Had a tasting there a few months ago. Big winery, but seem to put out decent wines.

My wife and I like Smoking Loon quite a bit. It is usually less than $10 per bottle at the grocery store.

I'm quite sure that you could find a nice box of wine in that price range....

+1 on the Smoking Loon cab or merlot. Good and inexpensive, pretty robust though. Not very subtle.

I also like Bon Terra organic wines (chard) They may be a bit more than $10, but not much more.

One of my favs under $20 is "Big Ass Cab." But it's usually around $15-16 so a bit more than you want to spend.

On that note, I think I'm going to go pick up a 4 pack of Sam Adams Imperial Stout.

If you've got a Trader Joe's nearby, I'm a huge fan of their Honey Moon Viognier (white).

I think Bogle Petit Sirah is about $10, and is great.

I'm also a fan of Malbec. Almost uniformly Malbec is a good value. You can typically find one for around $10, and it'll be on par with a $15-$25 bottle of pretty much any other red.

I think this wine is pretty good and it's reasonably priced, around $10/bottle - you can probably find it for less on sale. http://www.redtruckwine.com/redtruck/index.jsp They have a neat logo on their label, too.
