The world's largest retail chain is teaming up with E&J Gallo
Winery of Modesto, CA. 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 Wal-Mart 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, "There
is wine in a box that people are willing to buy," she said.
"The right name is important"
