Some Wal-Mart 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 13 suggested names for Walmart Wine:
13. Chateau Traileur Parc
12. White Trashfindel
11. Big Red Gulp
10. Grape Expectations
9. Domaine Wal-Mart "Merde du Pays"
8. NASCARbernet
7. Chef Boyardeaux
6. Peanut Noir
5. Chateau des Moines
4. I Can't Believe It's Not Vinegar!
3. World Championship Riesling
2. Sams Shiraz
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 both white meat (Possum) and red meat (squirrel). Make sure to vote on your favorite name at a Wal-Mart near you

Nice Wine names, but, I prefer the standard wines of my youth:
Red Mountain, Night Train and that genuine classic taste of nectar for guys on bum, Ripple.

Thunderbird was a cheap wine...
In 1972 Ohio sold cheap wine in quart plastic jugs (no cork, but a straw attached)
And in 1969 I tasted ASTI SPUMANTI and hated it. Recently a friend talked me into a glass and I still hate . It's carbonated grape swill. . . Just thought I'd share that with you.

In my neighborhood, those of us who chose a darker persuasion (along with Republicans) keep Sams gulag open. You need some wine names for us. Maybe, Chez Chittlings. For Republicans: Bush's Cheap Labor Blush.
