Sneaking in a quickie here after Thanksgiving when we enjoyed this Canadian Icewine. We’ve tasted and reviewed a few of these before and they’ve always been a fun change of pace. These are definitely on the sweeter side but packed with flavor and character. Golden in the glass with nice body to it, this wine …

There have been some really nice additions to the Kirkland wine portfolio in recent years. Notably a few that come to mind: Kirkland Signature Vacqueyras Kirkland Signature Suscol Vineyard Napa Cabernet Sauvignon Kirkland Signature Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Kirkland Signature Sancerre Kirkland Signature Gigondas Kirkland Signature Saint-Julien Bordeaux That’s a heck of a list from …
We knew this was going to be a delicious wine and boy, did it deliver. This is the Goldeneye Pinot from Duckhorn and their Anderson Valley fruit. We’ve tasted previous vintages (not from Costco) and have always enjoyed this wine. Tasting this 2021 vintage was a nice reminder of how good this really is. Costco’s …
We are always down for trying new Burgundies when they arrive at Costco and this was a new one we ran into. Costco’s price at $22.99 is about what we found the wine selling for online, and Vivino showed an average price of $22.61. So perhaps not much of a deal here for buying at …
Many of you have been wondering the same thing we have: where is the Costco wine advent calendar for 2024? For the past three years, we found it in stores in September. There were a few rumblings online about it for 2024, but not a lot of solid information or spottings in the wild. We …
This one caught us off guard. We were expecting a run of the mill Sangiovese, but couldn’t be more impressed with what’s delivered here and for only $13.89. Morellino di Scansano is a wine region in Tuscany that’s not often talked about, but should be. These wines are predominantly (85%) Sangiovese (Morellino is the local …
This popular Kirkland Bordeaux is back. Always a good sign since we have only have seen two vintages so far. It’s nice to see Costco committed to these high quality, highly desirable wine regions with the Kirkland label. More good news, the price actually keeps coming down a little bit each year. It’s not much, …
It’s already that time of the year, and we’re sure that many of you are planning for the big meal. If you’re reading this site, we imagine wine for Thanksgiving is also on your mind. Costco is a great place to stock up. We always put together this annual list for Thanksgiving, trying to highlight …
It’s been several years since we’ve seen this Riesling from Trimbach in Costco stores. And it’s too bad because it’s a delicious find from a consistently strong producer. We’ve enjoyed countless bottles from Trimbach over the years; this Riesling of course but also their Pinot Blanc; and then if you climb up in price, their …
Here’s a new Cabernet from Paso Robles hitting Costco stores. This one slides in right alongside other popular Costco favorites from this region we’ve also reviewed and enjoyed like Justin and Daou. The price tag at Costco ($16.99) comes in a few bucks shy of the aforementioned bottles, providing a similar quality wine at a …
A new Costco warehouse has opened in Napa, CA located at 280 Riversound Way. The store claims to have the largest wine selection of any other Costco warehouse with 174 SKUs. Most stores have half that or less. The wine steward at the new store told media they will have great prices on Bordeaux as …
Hello Costco Wine fans. Today’s that wonderful day of the year when we look back at the highest rated wines we tasted and reviewed from Costco during 2024. In case you’re curious, here are links to this story from previous years: 2023, 2022, 2021, and 2020. As any experienced Costco shopper knows, inventory moves fast, and that …
This is a new one that caught our eye. Long time readers know we love Spanish wines, especially Ribera Del Duero which is just a mecca for high quality wines at great prices. And this bottle is a perfect example. It’s not an inexpensive wine at $28.99 but we feel it’s worth that and much …
We found a couple new additions in the wine aisles worth noting during a recent visit to a Costco store in Alpharetta, GA. First up is a new “Taste of Spain” collection coming in at $24.99 for 3 bottles. The collection includes a Cabernet Sauvignon, a proprietary red wine and a Tempranillo. All wines were …
We’re hot from just having found the Cune Gran Reserva Rioja at Costco, and now we find this very affordable Rioja where the quality really surprised us at this price point. Good drinkable red wine under $10 that doesn’t come from the Kirkland brand is hard to find. Costco’s a good place to look as …
