Looks like Daou is expanding their Costco offerings which is great. We enjoy these wines so couldn't wait to taste this Sauvignon Blanc.
We've reviewed multiple vintages of their Cabernet, and a few vintages of their Chardonnay although it's been a while on the latter.
Also worth mentioning, the Daou Soul of a Lion (their high end Cab, haven't seen at Costco) is one of the standout bottles we tasted in the past 12 months.
Costco's price on this Sauvignon Blanc is $14.99, which is the same as you'll find elsewhere, including Total Wine. So if it sounds up your alley, you can likely find at multiple outlets for the same or similar price point.
92 points from Wine Enthusiast for the past two vintages, which is impressive.
Citrusy fruit and wet stone on the nose; flavors of grapefruit, lemon, pear, guava; good dose of acidity and minerality; medium body; tarty finish but not too much. A solid and accessible Sauvignon Blanc.
This is a crisp, refreshing white, enjoyable now during the winter months, but ideal for warm weather, beaches and pools so maybe hold on to a few for the summertime.
