Good Question! The state of California has 17 separate districts set up to track average grape prices. Grape growers use these averages to set their prices every year. District 4 is Napa Valley where 2007's average price for Cabernet Sauvignon was $ 4143.14 per ton. Compare Napa Valley to District 13's (Fresno) average of $260.81 and you can see that quality doesn't come cheap. Cabernet in Napa costs 16 times more than Fresno. (Ouch)
