Jug Wine

[quijote]

Yes, Randery, I still have memories of those gallons of Gallo from home, years ago...and more recent memories of a colleague opening his kitchen closet, with the result of several jugs of wine rolling onto the floor!

IK, your point is well taken, and that's sort of why I ask. It seems that good, quaffable wine is more readily available at very low prices and also in greater quantities. Some current colleagues of mine, for example, bring very large bottles of Concha y Toro Frontera wines to parties, and I've even seen big bottles of French Chardonnay (Barton et Gest?). I wonder if wines such as these are significantly taking market share from the big jugs?
