($8): One of the many Gallo labels, this straightforward–but good–wine challenges the proposition advanced by Michael Franz, my colleague at WRO, that California fails to produce many good inexpensive wines. At a minimum, it is one wine that can be chalked up as a win for California. Hardly complex–but eminently drinkable–this $8 mid weight wine delivers far more than expected. 84 Michael Apstein Jun 10, 2008
