This is one of those awesome opportunities to scoop up some great wine at great prices at Costco, which we know is the reason you all follow this site. From the moment we saw this bottle we knew this might be a score. And the half empty bin was a clear sign we weren’t the …

We were excited to get into this new addition to the Costco white wine section. Right off the bat the price caught our attention. $13.99 for Russian River Chardonnay? Usually you only find a Kirkland Signature bottle hitting that benchmark. Some later Internet searches turned up quite a bit of information on this bottle. Retail …
We mentioned before a goal to taste a lot of wines from Burgundy in 2023, so every time we see a new one pop up at Costco, we’re going to try to give it a review. Here’s a Pouilly-Fuisse that came in at $18.99, and it turned out to be an excellent find. Online we …
This popular Kirkland bottle usually hits stores around this time of the year. It was a little late last year arriving in March, at least around the Atlanta area. The price actually went down with this latest vintage, just a few cents, but glad to see it not going the other way. Finding Premier Cru Chablis …
This is a staple Costco Chablis that is usually a pretty safe bet for fans of this region, which we definitely are. The price was $19 a few years ago and has creeped up a little to $22.99 but seems to have stabilized there which is a good sign. I found a few other outlets …
Finally, for the first time, we didn’t skip a vintage on the Kirkland Chablis. For some reason, this one either doesn’t always appear near us, it sells out fast, or it skips a vintage. I think it’s a combination of the first two. But we found it this time, and there’s good news right off …
Clearly the first thing that stands out here is the massive limited time discount that might be about as hefty as we’ve ever seen in the wine aisle at Costco. And what makes it even better is that it’s applied to a delicious wine. Costco’s standard price on this bottle is $21.99, which is below …
There are not a lot of places to look for value wine buys in Burgundy nowadays, but Macon Villages and the entire Maconnais region still hits the mark for me. I really love the style of these Macon Villages wines and they remain perhaps among the best values you’ll find in white Burgundy and French …
Over the years, we’ve reviewed quite a few Duckhorn and Decoy (by Duckhorn) wines that have appeared at Costco and they’ve consistently delivered. Most recently, we posted about the Decoy Sonoma Red that we thought was a really good buy. Duckhorn’s whites have proven to be delicious as well. Their Sauvignon Blanc pops up occasionally, …
We first tasted the Jax Y3 Chardonnay a year ago after finding the 2016 vintage at Costco. I’d heard a few readers buzzing about it, the wine was highly rated, and Costco’s price was great at $13.99. Turned out, we loved the wine. Now the 2019 vintage is making its way into stores. You’ll notice …
Next up is a Kirkland wine we always look forward to tasting. This is one of the Kirkland bottles that varies the most in our point ratings with each vintage. Many of our readers’ comments have indicated similar feelings, enjoying some vintages more than others. We’ll look at our historic point ratings for this wine …
Here’s your summer white to stock up on. I was thrilled to see the new Zolo hit stores and the price stayed the same at only $7.99 which is amazing for this caliber of wine. You can see Suckling went 91 points on this vintage. We’ve historically come in around 89 points on previous vintages. …
I had to try this one when I saw the Costco placard showing the discounted price down to $6.79, from the standard Costco price of $9.99 (until 6/6). I had never tasted the wine before but figured it was worth a shot at under $7, and perhaps I would discover a bargain basement priced gem …
We are big fans of the Oberon Cabernet that we found at Costco earlier this year; so naturally, we were excited to find this Chardonnay arrive in our Costco store. Costco’s price was $15.99, which is the same price you can find this bottle for at Total Wine. On Wine.com it’s $20. I usually like …
There’s always a nice selection of Chardonnay at Costco this time of year, at least in stores near us, and the styles can vary widely between them. We enjoy a more balanced Chardonnay in the Chablis spirit, clean fruit, milder on the oak and butter. It’s really hard to tell what you’re getting from just …
