Some Walmart customers soon will be able to sample a new discount item: Walmart's
own brand of wine. The world's largest retail chain is teaming up with E&J Gallo
Winery of Modesto,California, to produce the spirits at an affordable price, in the
$2-5 range.

While wine connoisseurs may not be inclined to throw a bottle of Walmart brand wine
into their shopping carts, there is a market for cheap wine, said Kathy Micken,
professor of marketing at Roger Williams University in Bristol, R.I. She said: "The
right name is important."

So, here we go: The top 12 suggested names for Walmart Wine:

12. Chateau Traileur Parc
11. White Trashfindel
10. Big Red Gulp
9. Grape Expectations
8. Domaine Wal-Mart "Merde du Pays"
7. NASCARbernet
6. Chef Boyardeaux
5. Peanut Noir
4. Chateau des Moines
3. I Can't Believe It's Not Vinegar!
2. World Championship Riesling

And the number 1 name for Wal-Mart Wine ...

1. Nasti Spumante

The beauty of Wal-Mart wine is that it can be
served with white meat (Possum) and red meat (squirrel).

I can see it now, "Honey, scrape for change in the seat cushions, I need to get me some wine and be classy".

I was lounging on the couch when my sister was watching friends, Joey had a great line

"who said wine can't be cheaper than milk"

The family usually makes homemade wine, now that is great stuff
