When this happens, even LD will overnight at WalMart. 
Walmart wine
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, Calif., 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, RI. She said: "The
right name is important." So, here we go:
The top 12 suggested names for Walmart Wines:
12. Chateau Traileur Parc
11. White Trashfindel
10. Big Red Gulp
9. Grape Expectations
8. Domaine Walmart "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 Walmart Wine ...
1. Nasti Spumante

Gallo is king of Cheap wines. Ernie and Julio made their millions on wines such as Thunderbird, Boones Farm, Ripple, and those wine coolers that I forgot the name of. Julio died a few years ago but Ernie still lives in a house on the site of the orginal vineyard that their father started.

Bob,
That is not only a funny one but timely, Mondovi is worried about losing money to the TWO BUCK CHUCK wines started by Trader Joe's Markets. There is nothing more fun than watching a SF Bay area wineaux trying a glass of TBC in a twenty dollar glass and extolling it's virtues. BTW, a Wineaux is a wine lover that uses a glass.
