Greetings and Salutations!
Gallo wines began in 1933 by brothers Enerst and Julio in Modesto, California. The two of them started their vineyard right after the repeal of prohabition, learning their craft from old pre-prohabition pamphlets from the Univeristy of California (found in a library basement).
Now, E&J Gallo is the largest distributor for wine in the United States, selling such brands as Barefoot, Andre' Champagne, Bartles & James and Louis M. Martini.
This is how I found the Moscato (average price $7.99) .
-Has a very sweet, but not overpowering, aroma.
-There is a slight fizziness.
-Pleasant taste with fruity undertones.
-Smooth, almost honey-like, mouth feel.
-The body is almost medium, but not quite heavy.
-There is a very slight tartness in the finish, but it is not unpleasant.
This wasn't a bad moscato, but it didn't wow me either. It's a nice wine to serve when you have company or going on a picnic. Gallo has a nice selection of it's wines in little one dollar bottles that are nice if you only want a single glass.
Final rating: 65/100
That's all from me. Time for some sleep.
Jusqu'à Demain
