Default Blending recipes, anyone?

Hi all:

I know it'a all a matter of personal preference (well, at least
mostly), but would anyone like to share their blending recipes?
I'd like to be able to head up to my grape supplier with a priori
knowledge of what I need, rather than showing up like a neophyte
saying "Gee, I'd like to make a Cab, what do I need?". If this is
not something the more competitive types share, please forvige my
indiscretion.

I've made the following, with pretty good results:
Red Zinfandel - 100% red zin grapes
Chianti - 75% Sangiovese, 25% Merlot
Barbera - 75% Barbera, ~15% Muscat, ~10% Grenache

I'm most interested in Chianti, Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay,
Pinot Noir (red), Petite Sirah, and Syrah.

Thanks!

-Marc
