Re: (erielack) Gallo Wine Traffic
Gentlemen-
During the late 1960;s I worked for Dorchester, Inc. a liquor and wine
distributor in Hasbrouck Heights, New Jersey on the New Jersey & New
York branch. I don't know what brand of wine it was but we would get a
car full of California wines like every two weeks. I'm pretty sure we
had Gallo as one of our brands that we distributed. Maybe that's where
those cars were headed.
