Here we go with back to back reviews of the latest vintages of two of the most popular Kirkland bottles. We just wrapped up a tasting and review of the new 2021 Kirkland Chateauneuf du Pape, which was delicious. The latest vintage of the Kirkland Rioja is hitting stores too, and it’s a big time …

We were thrilled to find the new Kirkland Chateauneuf a full month earlier than in years past. Rumblings began a few weeks ago among readers who had found it, and thankfully it hit our stores this past weekend. A few things to note, starting with the price, staying steady at $19.99. We would have almost …
Seeing this in Costco so early made us do a double take. We’ve complained before that Costco was bringing this beloved rosé into stores in the middle of summer, and we wanted to start enjoying it in the springtime too. The previous two vintages of this bottle, we didn’t see it until July. And it …
We heard about a week and a half ago that this popular Kirkland wine was hitting shelves, and we didn’t see it on a prior trip the past weekend, but found it last night. And it’s one you need to grab when you can. It can disappear in days. And with good reason, because it’s …
There’s lots of good news around the newest vintage of this popular Kirkland Pinot, and it’s a bottle that we have really enjoyed since its introductory 2017 vintage. The first news is the price. It’s staying the same as the previous vintage at $12.99. Regular readers and fans of this bottle will know that it …
We always look forward to tasting the latest vintage of the Kirkland Chianti Classico, but remain a little reserved as it’s historically not been one of our preferred wines in the Kirkland portfolio. Last year the price jumped up $1 to $8.99, and at least it didn’t go any higher with this vintage. Still can’t …
We heard from readers that the latest vintage of the Kirkland Oakville Cab was hitting stores, and we finally found it after multiple trips to Costco over the past couple of weeks. This is one of our favorite wines in the Kirkland portfolio, and it remains really hard to beat for under $20. And that’s …
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 …
In all the years of running this site, this might be the Costco bottle we’ve wanted to find the most. We love the Costco hunt, but when we first heard from readers this new Kirkland wine was out there, we were hitting our Costco stores left and right trying to find it. Finally, we found …
The latest vintage of the Kirkland Malbec arriving in stores is always a welcome sight, and what we expect to see in December of each year. Similar to the Kirkland Bordeaux Superieur that we just reviewed, this bottle continues to retain its super low $6.99 price tag. With the inflation we’ve seen elsewhere, it’s surprising …
We are excited to see the new Kirkland Bordeaux Superieur hitting shelves a month or so early. Usually we see this one arrive in the February timeframe. It’s also nice to see the price continue to stay at $6.99 which is really good for the quality we’ve been finding in this wine, especially the more …
There’s quite a bit of new info to share about the latest vintage of the Kirkland Russian River Pinot, and it’s all positive. First off is the new label which surprised us; seems like they’ve tried quite a few different looks to this bottle over the years. We like it, and you can see how …
Costco’s been playing around with some redesigns of the Kirkland wine labels over the past year, so this new one caught our eye. It’s also a Columbia Valley Red blend, not the Cabernet that we have reviewed more recently. There was a Cabernet – Merlot a while back and before that a red blend that …
This was a welcome sight in the Costco wine aisles – the latest vintage of the Kirkland Signature Gigondas, which usually arrives in Jan is here a little early this year. It’s hard to believe that Kirkland produces a Gigondas bottle as it’s not the region of France you hear talked about all that much. …
Here’s one of our favorite Kirkland wines coming in right on time with the latest vintage. Fall is usually when this Brunello hits stores, and right off the bat we have some good news with the price staying at $19.99. Long time readers may remember this wine had crept up to $27 in prior years, …
