I assume you're referring to the Gallo labels that happen to not be named 'Gallo' so more specificity might be good here - Apanumu and Marcelina, for example (but probably not Indigo Hills). I'm sure all of these are far below the price range she's looking for.
OMG, if he's seriously suggesting Gallo as in Ernest and Julio, I WILL DIE.

Earp, sometimes people want to drink wine that doesn't come in a box.

As for real suggestions, there are a few Barolos that are amazing and many of the snottiest wine snobs I know drool over them. You can usually get them for an average of $80 a bottle. I bought a bottle for my grad advisor a year and a half ago.

I went on a wine tour of some vineyards in Long Island last month, and they had some great ice wines (one has a German name that I don't want to misspell). I don't think California makes many of the top top ice wines, since there are a couple that really suck. That's my suggestion for a good white.
