Default finding oaked wines ?

I enjoy red wine and drink a glass or two every day. I have read that
"oaked" red wine has more antioxidents than "unoaked" red wine. Since
I drink red wine anyway, I'd like to buy some that is aged in real oak
barrels. How do I find these wines? Reading descriptions in the
liquor stores doesn't tell me anything. I have been surfing the
internet and have found a few wine producers who claim that they use
real oak barrels, but I can't find their wines in my local liquor
stores. Are there any commonly available oaked red wines that are in
almost every store? If possible, I'd like to sample the difference
between French oaked and American oaked.
Thanks !!
Nia
