WALMART WINE

ONE OF THE TOP rated wines in the world can now be found at . . . Walmart.  The discount retailer may not be the first place that comes to mind when thinking of great wines but more than 5OO Walmart stores across the US have started selling bottles of La Moneda Reserva Malbec, an award-winning wine previously sold exclusively at Walmart’s UK grocery chain, Asda.  In a blind taste test, the Chilean wine was named “platinum best in show” at the 2O16 Decanter World Wine Awards this summer.  It beat out over 16,OOO entries with a score of 95 out of 1OO.  Walmart says the $6 bottle of dry red goes well with barbecued meats and dark chocolate.
