For All You Wine Aficionados
WalMart announced that, sometime in 2008, it will begin offering
customers a new discount item ---- WalMart's own brand of wine.
The world's largest retail chain is teaming up with Ernest &
Julio Gallo Winery of California to produce the spirits at an
affordable price, in the $2.00 - $5.00 range.
Wine connoisseurs may not be inclined to put a bottle of WalMart
brand into their shopping carts, but "there is a market for
inexpensive wine," said Kathy Micken professor of marketing at**
**University of Arkansas, Bentonville. "But the right name is
important."**
Customer surveys were conducted to determine the most attractive
name for the WalMart wine brand. The top surveyed names in order
of popularity were:
10. Chateau Traileur Parc
9. White Trashfindel
8. Big Red Gulp
7. World Championship Riesling
6. NASCARbernet
5. Chef Boyardeaux
4. Peanut Noir
3. I Can't Believe it's not Vinegar
2. Grape Expectations
1. Nasti Spumante
The beauty of WalMart wine is that it can be served with either
white meat (Possum) or red meat (Squirrel).
P. S. Don't bother writing back that this is a hoax. I know
possum is not a white meat.*

I wish I had never introduced my wife to good wine......she turns her nose up at the cheap stuff now. At least she knows how to order wine when she is entertaining clients or at a dinner meeting with peers.
