This is the second year in a row that the Kirkland Barolo is arriving in the June / July timeframe. For the first few years of its existence, it hit stores in the first quarter of the year. So we would get a little nervous when it didn’t show up. Regardless, we’re happy to see …

We’ve skipped a couple vintages of this one. Not so much on purpose but rather it just seems to slide by the way side a bit. But for what it is, and at this price point, we know quite a few readers who buy it often and really enjoy it. So we’re back after a …
Hello Costco wine fans. Today we have the latest vintage of the Kirkland Carneros Pinot Noir. Historically, not a favorite of the blog among the Kirkland Pinot Noirs. We had a few vintages of this bottle we liked some time ago but lately it’s been falling a little flat. It’s too bad since the price …
We love seeing this one arrive in stores in May. That trend started with the last vintage, and it allows us to enjoy this bottle all summer long. Previously it was hitting shelves in July. We also love seeing the price stay the same year to year at $7.99. That’s an absolute steal for a …
The Alexander Valley Cabernet from Kirkland seems to slip past us some years. It’s been around for ten years and while we’re not sure if they produced a vintage every single year, we’ve only tasted a handful. One thing we see is the price is the same as it has been since the 2012 vintage …
Back again, and we say thank you. This Suscol Vineyard Cabernet from the Kirkland label is a relatively new wine in the Kirkland portfolio, but one that we’ve always enjoyed. Sometimes these special wines will fizzle out after a few vintages, so it’s nice to see this one back in stock, and after tasting this …
One of our favorite Kirkland wines is hitting shelves earlier than ever. The last vintage appeared at the end of May which was a month earlier than the vintage before that. And we’ll take it. The Kirkland Chateauneuf du Pape is always a fun one to explore, and this vintage lands among the highest rated …
Here’s one of our favorite Kirkland wines, making a slightly early appearance this year with the brand new 2019 vintage. We know this is a reader favorite, and it’s a consistent value buy every year. The price is staying the same year to year at $7.89; we love to see that. And look at our …
The new vintages of popular Kirkland bottles keep rolling in. Next up, we have the Kirkland Mendoza Malbec, which is usually a good pick on the affordable side of things. And once again, the price remains $6.99 (same since the 2015 vintage). Can’t beat that. We also have the same winemaker, Sergio Case, from Broquel, …
We had several readers tip us off that this bottle was arriving in Costco stores, and we were thrilled to find it on our last trip. We bought three right away, but maybe should have picked up more. This one will sell out quickly. As you can see this is the 2022 vintage, and we …
We’re getting a fresh batch of Kirkland wines hitting stores, and we’ve heard from readers there are several more out there, so hopefully we can get reviews up here for everyone. The Kirkland Napa Red Blend has really come a long way over the years. Since it’s earliest intro as the 2014 Kirkland Meritage, the …
We are happy to see this Pinot arriving in stores a little early this year. We typically see this in Q2, April-timeframe, and it’s been a consistent winner over the years. The price remains $12.99, which is down from the $14.99 price tag we saw on this bottle for a few vintages. And it’s always …
Finding this bottle is always a highlight at the beginning of the year. We’ve been big fans, particularly of the last couple vintages. A little bit of a surprise though. We are getting a price increase, up to $18.99 from a previous $17.49. Still, for Premier Cru Chablis coming in under $20 is a good …
Here’s the newest vintage of the Kirkland Chianti Classico hitting stores now. We had a little surprise with a Kirkland Chianti Classico Gran Selezione making a debut in Costco last month. While priced a little higher than the standard Chianti Classico that Gran Selezione was delicious and we’ve still seen it still lingering in stores, …
It’s always an exciting day when the latest vintage of the Kirkland Oakville Cab hits stores, and we’ll tell you right off the bat, this is a vintage not to be missed. Despite all the inflationary pressures out there, the price on this wine remains $19.99, which is absolutely amazing for an Oakville wine, and …
