Gallo was who pioneered making wine using modern processes. If you ever have seen the Gallo winery, it looks like an oil refinery with all sorts of tanks and pipes.
Gallo was an Italian and like most Italians and Frenchmen, wine is considered a food staple and is served with meals. They appreciate a good table wine and it's the fuit of life.

Gallo made some good wines for what they were.
Indeed.
The "Gallo of Sonoma" brand is an off-shoot and completely different company than the main Gallo brands. It is their premium stuff and actually quite good.
However, if you want a wine for sangria or to blend with fruit juices or other stuff, the cheap Gallo stuff is good enough.
Bottoms Up!!!

I had to do a big case study in business school on Gallo Wines. It is one of the richest privately held corporations in the US.
Old man Galo was an interesting character. He was kind of the Hartley Peavey of the wine industry. Everyone makes fun of Gallo but the guy has gotten rich and he pioneered modern manufacturing processes that nobody was using.
Gallo got stopped using oak tanks and went to stainless steel tanks. Why? Wood holds bacteria and mold and the batches are not consistant. Gallo ages his wine in clean stainless steel tanks with oak chips in the bottom of them. Old man Gallo started using screw top caps because they created a better seal than corks and were easier to open.
Gallo wanted to be the best wine for the best prices. That was his goal. He was Italian and wanted everyone to enjoy a nice glass of wine with their pasta and not pay a fortune for it.
