Very good example of marketing cleverness.

It disappoints even next to the cheapest Corbieres.

Here's one way Gallo improves its quality:

Is mass market appeal what defines a quality wine these days?
Even the snobs have lost it.
Hey Dave... is this stuff on your wine list?

FWIW, the recent Becks Octoberfest offering here is surprisingly good.
Thankfully they passed on their mass market taste test, if they had
it would have come out as Budweiser.

"What is not happening is any 'intifada'; France is not burning; I still
doubt that its integration model is failing

The author of that statement has a serious disconnect from reality.

; what is clearly not
tolerable anymore is how an underclass (not necessarily only the
immigrants, but where they are clearly over represented, and definitely
young and undereducated) has been sacrificed and abandoned in the
country's (real and mostly successful) efforts to adapt to increasing
international competition. They must be brought back into the fold, and
toughness is not the way."

Then I guess there will be war, since that will mean capitalism must be
brought into the economy and the idea of all that paid vacation is going to
be out.
