BENTONVILLE, ARK (AP) - 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 $6-8 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 inexpensive wine, said Kathy Micken, professor of marketing at Roger Williams University in Bristol, RI She said: "The right name is important."

So, with that in mind, here are the top 12 suggested names for Walmart Wine:

12. Chateau Traileur Doublewide

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 Wriesling

And the number 1 name for Walmart Wine...

1. Nasti Spumante

    True Story......

    Many years ago....I'd only been married for a couple of years, and still had a bunch of bachelor buddies. One of them, Hank, had the greatest nose in the world.....he could smell a roast beef 10 miles away....and he usually showed up right around dinner time!

    One day he actually brought a bottle of wine. When I asked if it was any good, he replied: "Hey, this is good stuff. It's got a CORK!" :)
