It was this time last year when we first caught a glimpse of the new branding for the Kirkland Rioja, using the JME Seleccion badging. The price on this bottle seems to keep bouncing around in between $6.99 and $7.99, going back on toward the $8 range with the 2021 vintage. Anywhere under $10 and […]
2024 Kirkland Signature Bordeaux Blanc
Readers first alerted us to this new Kirkland wine a couple weeks ago, and we finally found it in stores near us. We are happy to see this bottle join the Kirkland wine portfolio, and even happier once we got into it. It's quite a bargain for only $6.99. The wine is a blend of […]
2021 Kaiken Ultra Malbec
We almost passed on this one but some of the detail on the Costco placard caught our eye. And it turns out we couldn't be happier we gave this Malbec a shot. The 92 points from Wine Spectator along with naming this bottle #30 on their top 100 wines list for 2024 (sign mistakenly says […]
2023 Andrew Syrah Paso Robles
A little something different this time around: an organically grown Syrah from Paso Robles. Interesting label, cool name (mine) and a pretty good price at Costco coming in at $14.99, versus Total Wine where we see it for $19.99; retail appears to be closer to $30. Wine Enthusiast went a whopping 92 points for this […]
New Kirkland Wine: 2024 Bordeaux Blanc
It's always an exciting day when a reader (thanks Ian) writes in after spotting a new Kirkland wine. This time it's a Kirkland Bordeaux Blanc that was reported at a Costco store in Issaquah, WA (near HQ). The price was $6.99, which is fantastic, and regular readers might be familiar with the Chateau pictured on […]
2023 Kirkland Signature Suscol Vineyard Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
Looks like another Mar/April release for this one, earlier than we've seen for the first few vintages of this popular Kirkland single vineyard Cabernet. We had to do a double take on the price on that Costco placard. This wine started at $16.99, crept up to $17.99, and now it actually went down to $15.99. […]
2024 Kirkland Signature Malbec Mendoza
The Kirkland Malbec is back with the new 2024 vintage. Right off the bat, we're looking at that price, which amazingly is staying the same at $6.99. It's hard to believe but the price has stayed the same on this bottle since it was first released back in 2017 with the 2015 vintage. Next we're […]
Nicolas Feuillatte Reserve Exclusive Brut Champagne
This is a bottle Champagne fans are probably familiar with and it was a nice surprise to see it at Costco at the very fair price of $34.99. It's a Champagne that's popular on restaurant wine lists, likely due to its relatively low price compared to most other bottles of you'll find; of course though […]
2023 Tapestry Red Blend Paso Robles
Here's a new one that caught our eye for a few reasons. Sure we enjoy wine from Paso Robles, but the name "tapestry" reminded us of the popular Tapestry Napa wine made by Beaulieu Vineyard (BV). Turns out, after seeing the back label, this bottle is also made by BV and serves as one of […]
2021 Stags' Leap Winery Petite Sirah
This is always a fun bottle that we've run into at Costco a few times over the years, the most recent of which was in 2022 with the 2018 vintage, which we greatly enjoyed. Here we are about four years later and it's making another appearance with the 2021 vintage. It's important to note that […]
2023 Primi Proprietary Red Wine Navarra
We've had a few readers write in about this discounted red blend from Spain. The consensus is that it's a solid everyday drinker at this price, and we concur after finding it in a warehouse near us. The discount this time is half off, which is one the bigger ones we've ever seen. $7 off […]
2022 Kirkland Signature Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
The Alexander Valley Cabernet from Kirkland is a bottle that we're always pulling for with high hopes on what it can deliver for $10. Historically, it's landed in the middle of the road for us, with some vintages showing better than others. Other vintages apparently skipped too, so it's always a bit of a mystery. […]
2021 Elena Fucci Titolo Aglianico Del Vulture
This is a powerhouse Italian red made from the often overlooked, but very delicious, Aglianico grape. It was just under two years ago when we last found and reviewed an Aglianico from Costco, and that one was delicious as well, and much less expensive. This bottle is getting up there in price at $34.99, and […]
2024 Kirkland Signature Sonoma County Old Vine Zinfandel
It's interesting that we're seeing the 2024 vintage of this wine arriving in Costco stores right now. It was just over two years ago that we reviewed the 2021 vintage, so a bit of a jump to 2024. But it's not uncommon for Costco to skip a vintage, or for us to miss one. We […]
2023 Banshee Pinot Noir Sonoma County
Banshee is known for delivering quality wines at great prices so it was a no-brainer to scoop this one up when we saw it at Costco for $17.89. This is the first time tasting their Pinot from Sonoma County, and we were pleasantly surprised. This is one of those sub $20 Pinots that is very […]
2023 Kirkland Signature Series Premier Cru Chablis
The latest vintage of the Kirkland Premier Cru Chablis is arriving in stores. I know some readers found this last month, but we are just seeing it now around us in Atlanta. Costco finally broke the crucial $20 price point this time around. It was climbing up from $17 a few years ago, to $18.99 […]
2023 Kirkland Signature Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon
We've been anxiously awaiting the arrival of the newest vintage of this wine and even more interested to see how it tastes having come off a rather mediocre vintage in 2022. Readers were reporting it was out in stores, and it finally made its way into a warehouse near us this week. A few key […]
2020 Santa Giulia Brunello di Montalcino
There have been a few of these sub $30 Brunellos hitting Costco shelves lately, and we've had some readers write in with positive comments about many of them. The popular $20 Kirkland Brunello is likely long gone so many of us are looking for tasty alternatives that don't cost too much more. Here's a new […]
2022 My Favorite Neighbor Cabernet Sauvignon
Well we bumped into the newest vintage of one of our favorite bottles and couldn't wait to try. This marks the fourth vintage of this wine that we've found at Costco, and our ratings have been consistently very high. We went 95 points on the 2019 vintage, another 95 points on the 2020 vintage, and 94 points […]
2019 Bodegas Olarra Reciente Gran Reserva Rioja
Bodegas Olarra is a familar sight to many in the Costco wine aisle, and over the years we've reviewed a nice selection of their Riojas, but not this Gran Reserva that we found at a nice discounted price. Costco's $8 limited time discount on this bottle brings the price down to only $11.99, which is […]
2023 Kirkland Signature Saint-Julien Bordeaux
We've been looking for the latest vintage of this popular Kirkland bottle to land in stores, and alas, today is the day. But surprisingly, this is the 2023 vintage, not the expected 2022. Does this mean a 2022 vintage was not produced? We think that might be the case after clicking around online. 2022 was […]
2022 Spyland Red Blend
There's a huge Costco discount on this Portuguese red blend, bringing the price down to only $7.99, and it's a beauty inside that we're rating 90 points. The tagline for this wine is "always watching," which follows the spy theme and there's a fun little writeup about it on the back label. The wine received […]
2022 Villota Selvanevada Rioja
We're huge fans of Rioja and will always scoop up these new ones that appear at Costco to taste and review for the site. They almost always overdeliver for the price. We have a solid pick here at a nicely discounted Costco price. Poking around online we found a consistent 91 points from all the […]
2022 DAOU Bodyguard Red Blend Paso Robles
It looks like there's even more wines from DAOU coming to Costco shelves, which is ok with us. Cool label on this one. We just reviewed and really enjoyed their Sauvignon Blanc. The DAOU Cabernet has been a Costco staple for a while and we've seen a few vintages of their Chardonnay as well. This Bodyguard bottle […]
2020 Chateau Thomas Francs Cotes de Bordeaux
Here's a new Bordeaux hiding among the cheap seats that needed to be tasted given it received a nice 92 point rating from Wine Enthusiast and is selling at Costco for only $6.99. We love discovering and tasting these inexpensive, and often high quality, European wines that seems to sneak in among the boxes of […]
2024 Daou Sauvignon Blanc Paso Robles
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 […]
2024 Etiko Montepulciano d'Abruzzo
Let's keep the Italian reds rolling a bit longer. Here's an organic Montepulciano d'Abruzzo we are seeing at Costco for the first time. Costco's price is $18.79 and as we've written about before, that .79 at the end indicates this is a special price for Costco. It looks like most outlets online are selling this […]
2023 Justice Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley
This is one of the most talked bottles to hit Costco in recent memory. We had a few readers write in about it, and one (thanks CL) who shared some email comments directly from someone on the inside. According to an email we saw, this is a wine that would normally retail for $600 and […]
2021 Ca Di Bruno Barbaresco
We had a feeling this might be a stunner, and yes, it delivered just as we hoped. It's great to see another Barbaresco hit Costco shelves. As we noted in a review of the Ciabot Baronetto Barbaresco we reviewed a couple months ago, in our 1300+ reviews on this site, we just didn't see many […]
2023 Decoy Limited Paso Robles Cabernet Sauvignon
This is a rather new offering (2nd vintage) from Duckhorn's Decoy label, a Cabernet Sauvignon from Paso Robles. And as long time readers know, we're big fans of Cabernet from Paso Robles, so we were anxious to see what this one was all about. The price at Costco was $19.99, so right on par with […]
2019 Chateau du Glana Saint-Julien Bordeaux
Here's a Grand Vin Saint-Julien Bordeaux landing at Costco at a fantastic discounted price. Similar price point to the wonderful Chateau Cantemerle Bordeaux we reviewed earlier this year. And it's going to pull down a similar 90+ point rating from us as well. This winery is in a great location in Saint-Julien, right at the […]
Kirkland Signature 10-Year Tawny Port
It's been nine years almost to the day when we last reviewed the Kirkland 10-year Tawny Port, and in the past few months it seems like we've heard from more readers than ever before inquiring about this one. Tawny ports are great to have on hand during the holidays, and are perfect to finish any […]
Zaha Calcaire Cuvee Reserve Blanc de Blancs
With the holidays here upon us, and New Years around the corner, we thought this would be a fun wine to review. This is a bubbly made from high altitude Chardonnay in Mendoza; something a little different in the sparkling wine area that we haven't tasted too often before. This wine is made in the […]
2020 'The McNab' McNab Ranch Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon
This is a single vineyard Cabernet made by Bonterra, a winery known for their organic, biodynamic and sustainable practices, and also some pretty tasty wine. This summer we found their estate Sauvignon Blanc at Costco for the first time. The price was $15 and we went 89 points on it; a nice summer find that […]
2023 Kirkland Signature Bordeaux Superieur
While one of the least expensive Kirkland wines, this bottle has really come to deliver good value over the past few vintages, and we're happy to see that continue with the new 2023 vintage in stores now. This is often a December arrival, as it is this year; last vintage was a little late, not […]
2022 Zaha El Corte Toko Vineyard
Today we are looking at a Malbec-Cabernet red blend from Argentina, a style of wine we can often get behind, and a region that delivers solid value in today's wine world. The last time we reviewed this wine was back in 2019 with the 2016 vintage, so it's been a while. We went 88 points […]
2021 Kirkland Signature Chianti Classico Gran Selezione
This marks the third vintage for this exciting, and very delicious, Kirkland wine. We are thrilled to see it back and hope this is an indication it's sticking around for a while. We've gone 93 points on this one back to back, making it among the highest rated wines in the Kirkland portfolio from our […]
2022 Ghost Block Oakville Estate Cabernet Sauvignon
Holy smokes look what we found at Costco. We had to do a double take because this is one of our favorite Napa wines at an unbeatable price. And we've never seen it at Costco before. This Ghost Block Oakville Estate Cabernet is almost always at least $100, if not more. At Total Wine it's […]
Taste of Spain 3 Bottle 90+pt Box Collection
Here's another wine box hitting Costco stores and it's another ridiculous value buy. We've posted about the Wines of Europe set, and the Grands Vins de Bordeaux collections already this year. These boxes typically get you the wines for about $8.50/bottle, and they're rated 90+ points, so they are not the standard issue sub-$10 drinkers. […]
The Definitive Guide To Costco's Kirkland Signature Wines
Costco's Kirkland branded products are synonymous with high quality at super low prices, and the wine aisle is no exception. In some cases, Kirkland wines can be the shining example of the ridiculous quality to price ratio you can find under these private branded products. We've been tasting and reviewing Kirkland wines since before we […]
