This is one of our top go-to bottles at Costco, and while the window when it hits stores seems to vary year to year, the quality of this wine is remarkably consistent. Costco has maintained the price too at $12.99, which is what’s it’s been since 2015 when we found it for $11.99. So inflation …

We love finding and tasting new Chateauneuf-du-pape from Costco, and here’s a new addition to the wine aisles that turned out to be a huge score. Outside of the Kirkland Chateauneuf-du-pape that is priced at $20, it’s hard to find good Chateauneuf at a reasonable price. Usually you have to spend $40-$50+ to get the highly …
This bottle was first recommended by a reader who seems to always turn up good wine values, especially those from Europe. And we also heard about the limited time Costco discount that brings the price of the bottle down to $6.99. This limited time $5 off the standard $11.99 price tag ends August 8th, so …
A little surprised to see this one hitting stores so early. The prior 2020 vintage arrived in December of 2022. We gave it a respectable 88 points, and typically enjoy these Kirkland wines that come in from Washington state. There have been a hodge podge of different Kirkland red blends from Washington state over the …
This is just the bottle we hope to find when cruising through the Costco aisles. Portugal is a mecca for huge value buys and this one fits the bill. So we scooped it up right away; probably should have bought more. Only $12.99, but drinks like it cost twice that. 91 points from Wine Enthusiast, …
Condado de Haza is a name in Spanish winemaking that you need to commit to memory. It’s been a while since we’ve seen one of their wines appear at Costco. The last time was all the way back in 2016 with the 2012 vintage. Since then, their wines have been a go to choice for us when …
Here’s a big time Costco wine find on multiple levels. First, we love Rioja because they just consistently overdeliver at amazing price points. This bottle is at Costco for only $9.99, but online it’s selling for everywhere from $15-$40. Next up is the vintage, 2013. This wine has 10 years of age built in, ready to drink …
Just a few days ago we raved about Portugal being among the best places to find value bottles in the modern wine world. That was said around our review of this fantastic wine that we gave a solid 90 points. And then the next wine we taste is this gem from Rioja. This one is …
Portugal is going to have a bigger moment in the spotlight if more people start getting in tune with some of the great wines coming out of there at great prices. We were so happy to see this one pop up at Costco amid so many of the usual bottles we review. Portugal is our …
Bodegas Olarra puts quite a few different wines into Costco stores and they always turn out to be solid values. This Gran Reserva may be among the best of the best for only $15.99, which is about as low as you’ll find a Gran Reserva bottle. We found a retail price listed at $40, and …
It’s not every day we see wines from Spain’s famed Priorat region show up at Costco. In fact, the last one we found and reviewed was the Vines of Bonmont Priorat back in Dec of 2021. It’s a shame because Priorat produces such good wine, and it’s not inexpensive, so finding bottles at Costco with a …
This was a fun new find and a wine that we didn’t know existed. It is a French Grenache made by Dave Phinney of Orin Swift and Prisoner fame. We found it at Costco for $14.99, which seemed like a great price and sure enough, a later Google search shows the wine selling between $28-$34 …
This was a great Costco wine find that was recommended by several readers. Bodega Tapiz is a super dependable producer from Argentina. It’s been a while since we’ve reviewed a wine from them (longer than I thought). The last review was back in 2019 with the Tapiz Black Tears Malbec, a big time winner and one that …
This is typically not the type of wine we seek out, the big bold, hodge podge red blends from California. But we have seen this bottle on all of our latest trips to Costco, and several readers have written in about it, so for the sake of this site, we picked one up. Costco’s price is …
This is a new Bordeaux style blend from California’s Central Coast that is hitting Costco stores. Costco’s $8.59 price tag is very competitive since the wine can be found at Total Wine for $13 and at a similar price at other outlets we found. A quick Google search indicates some high ratings too including a …
