2019 Charles Krug Cabernet Sauvignon Napa

We were on the hunt for Costco bottles we haven’t reviewed yet, and found this Napa Cab from Charles Krug that we’re pretty sure we’ve tasted before, just haven’t posted about it. Over the years of running this site, we’ve reviewed three past vintages of the Charles Krug Sauvignon Blanc (2021, 2018, 2012) but not …

2018 Bodega Tapiz Bicentenario Red Blend

This was a great Costco wine find that was recommended by several readers. Bodega Tapiz is a super dependable producer from Argentina.  It’s been a while since we’ve reviewed a wine from them (longer than I thought).  The last review was back in 2019 with the Tapiz Black Tears Malbec, a big time winner and one that …

2020 Castello Di Querceto Chianti Classico

Last week, we reviewed the latest vintage of the Kirkland Signature Chianti Classico Riserva.  We’ve reviewed vintages of that bottle going back to 2013, and we’ve always found them to be pretty middle of the road. With our review of the 2020 vintage, we brought our rating down to 85 points, and several readers agreed and …

2020 Kirkland Signature Chianti Classico Riserva

We always look forward to tasting the latest vintage of the Kirkland Chianti Classico, but remain a little reserved as it’s historically not been one of our preferred wines in the Kirkland portfolio. Last year the price jumped up $1 to $8.99, and at least it didn’t go any higher with this vintage. Still can’t …

2020 Kirkland Signature Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon

We heard from readers that the latest vintage of the Kirkland Oakville Cab was hitting stores, and we finally found it after multiple trips to Costco over the past couple of weeks. This is one of our favorite wines in the Kirkland portfolio, and it remains really hard to beat for under $20. And that’s …

2016 Bodegas Valdelacierva Rioja Reserva

Finding this bottle was a pleasant sight for us in the Costco wine aisles.  We have previously reviewed the 2014 vintage of this wine and really enjoyed it. You can see by the Costco placard this bottle has received a string of 90+ point ratings, including 90 points from us on the 2014 vintage.  2016 was a …

2019 Masseria Surani Primitivo

We love finding new wines at Costco, especially varietals like this that we don’t see all the time. Wine being a lifelong journey of discovery, it’s important to try new things, be adventurous, and be open to new styles and grapes. Primitivo is actually from the same grape variety as Zinfandel (which originates from Croatia). …
