Jam Vino by Chef Lorious Wins Walmart's Golden Ticket, Bringing Gourmet Wine-Infused Jams to Shelves in 2025

The gourmet jams by Chef Lori Rogers are available at Walmart.com and will debut in Walmart stores in June 2025.

DALLAS, Oct. 10, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Thousands of small businesses applied to participate in the annual Walmart Open Call, yet only 92 brands received the Golden Ticket and Jam Vino was one of them. Chef Lorious (Lori Rogers), the culinary creative behind the gourmet wine-infused jam received the coveted Golden Ticket after the team's one-on-one pitch meeting at Walmart headquarters on Wednesday, September 25, 2024. This monumental win secures placement for Jam Vino on Walmart shelves starting in June 2025. Until then, Chef Lorious' signature Jam Vino flavors—Blackberry Merlot, Raspberry Moscato, and Strueberry Blanc—can be purchased online at Walmart.com.

"We're beyond thrilled to partner with Walmart and bring Jam Vino to homes across America," says Lori Rogers, Founder and CEO of Chef Lorious Group, LLC. "It's not just a jam—it's an experience. Jam Vino combines the heart of the South with the elegance of wine country, and our partnership with Walmart allows us to fulfill our mission of providing Everyday Luxury for Everyday People."

Jam Vino has established an entirely new subcategory of jam by blending artisanal craftsmanship with the sophisticated notes of fine wines. Jam Vino elevates dishes—whether it is spread on artisan bread, glazed on roasted meats, or swirled into yogurt and smoothies. All natural, Jam Vino contains only five ingredients no artificial preservatives, artificial sweeteners or artificial colors.

Jam Vino's three flagship flavors each bring something special to the table:

• Blackberry Merlot: A velvety fusion of plump, sun-ripened blackberries and the rich, full body flavor of Merlot. This flavor is ideal for pairing with charcuterie or enhancing recipes with a gourmet twist.
• Raspberry Moscato: A refreshing, floral blend of Moscato wine and fresh raspberries delivers a light and fruity taste that adds a surprising burst of flavor to both sweet and savory dishes.
• Strueberry Blanc: The perfect marriage of strawberries, blueberries, and Sauvignon Blanc, this flavor balances natural sweetness and light acidity. It's an elegant option for everything from dessert toppings to spreads.

Introducing Calibama
Jam Vino is a tribute to Chef Lori's "Calibama" roots, blending the rustic charm of Southern cooking with the refined sophistication of California wine culture. What started as a creative take on a family recipe during a cooking demo at Williams-Sonoma evolved into a full-fledged culinary hit, captivating both casual food lovers and gourmet enthusiasts.

"Jam making, passed down from my Alabama family, is a Southern tradition that I've cherished for years. But when I combined those flavors with California wines, it felt like magic– it's so rewarding to now be able to share that magic with Walmart customers," Chef Lorious shares.
