Wal-Mart announced that they would soon be offering customers a new
discount item: Wal-Mart's own brand of wine.
The world's largest retail chain is teaming up with E&J Gallo Winery
of CALIFORNIA to produce the spirits at an affordable price, in the
$2-5 range. Wine connoisseurs may not be inclined to throw a bottle
of Wal-Mart brand into their shopping carts, but "there is a market
for cheap wine," said Kathy Micken, professor of marketing. She said,
"But the right name is important." Customer surveys were conducted to
determine the most attractive name for the Wal-Mart brand. The top 10
surveyed names in order of popularity are:
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 Wal-Mart wine is that it can be served with either
white meat,(Possum) or red meat(Squirrel).
