Here's a classy Sancerre hitting Costco shelves. You'll never hear us complain about seeing more Sancerre at Costco. These wines are consistently so delicious, and food friendly.
The Kirkland Sancerre is fantastic, and there's been a handful of others, but it is definitely a region we'd love to see in Costco more often.
This bottle is 100% Sauvignon Blanc and hitting Costco for $39.99, which is similar to what we found it selling for online.
Nice citrus fruit and floral on the nose; flavors of lemon, lime, green apple, a little grassy with medium plus acidity; mineral notes towards the refreshing finish. Signature Sancerre.
We are going 90 points on this one. Again, we can't get enough Sancerre. We buy it whenever we can - Costco, Total Wine, at restaurants - just wish it wasn't getting so expensive.

Since Kirkland is an exclusive Costco brand, how can you make a comparison to pricing at other online sellers?

@Don,
This is not a Kirkland wine. Kirkland does offer a Sancerre on occasion.

For less than half the price. I'll stick with the Kirkland Sancerre.
