The American market is currently flooded with a lot of cheap blended wines. They don't typically have a single year vintage. They are smooth, consistent, meant to pair with a broad range of foods, and unremarkable. There's seldom a distinctive character of any particular grape that shines through.

That's a pity.
Then wine is treated like Coca-Cola, which is always the same.
Fore-seeable.
No surprises.
