Just tried the Willamette Valley Pinot Noir. Very disappointed! No taste, and very coarse! Didn't match your review or the bottle description. Not worth $5 never mind $15. May be a bad bottle or lot but no evidence of such from cork.

From what I've read, they only ship to CA. :-(

New to the site as I was looking for information on Kirkland wines. We've been known to pop into local Costco stores while traveling to see the regional and seasonal selections. As noted by some, the wine selections vary substantially for lesser known labels, and specific regional wines tend to stay that way. The Costco stores in Santa Barbara and Santa Maria will have some central coast wines mixed in, the Santa Rosa Costco Napa region wines. In talking to small vineyard owners, it's the same influence affecting all other Costco products: distributor commitments and marketing. That said, really appreciate the info, as it did help when visiting Tennessee recently and grabbing wine for use there.

Very disappointed today to go to Costco in Charlotte ,with intent to buy 6 of the higher rated Kirkland wines based on 2019 reviews, and to find they did not have any of those wines in stock . IN fact they only had a Columbia Valley Cab in stock. Almost seems like Costco is pulling back on its Kirkland brand wines. I asked the clerk to check inventories like for the Cotes du Rhone and she said it had been deleted from this store and most in the Southeast. Very strange.

Hi Donald, I hear what you’re saying and have not seen as many Kirkland wine offerings around my area too (especially compared to prior years). The Columbia valley Cab is a good one though. I heard the new Gigondas is out if you like Cotes du Rhône. We will keep reporting on them as they appear. Hope that we see an influx soon. Thanks for the note.
