TEXAS WAL-MART STORES

customers a new discount item . Wal-Mart's own brand of wine.
The world's largest retail chain is teaming up with Ernest & Julio Gallo Winery of California to produce the spirits at an affordable price, in the $2- $5 range.

into their shopping carts, but "there is a market for inexpensive wine," said

Bentonville.
