Best Consistently Good Winery?

I can't believe I'm going to be such a homer here but I gotta A) agree wholeheartedly with the Lehmann mention and B) Put up the name of L'Ecole No. 41 out of my homie state of WA.

Marty Clubb has made sexy, thoughtful, finely-honed wines in every vintage, red and white, and has managed as well as anybody up here to capture our weird, slippery terroirs. His basic, the Schoolhouse Red, is as good a bottle of $15 wine as we see here, every vintage. I've never had a wine from him that was even mildly boring. Everything is drinkable, characterful, and even reasonably priced.
