This Rhone Valley white was a pleasant surprise for us on our last trip to Costco. We are seeing more and more unique white wines finally hitting stores, and it’s really exciting to be able to taste through them. Here we have a Cotes du Rhone Villages white selling for $13. Regular readers know we …

Here’s another new white wine to hit Costco that we were pumped to find. We just reviewed this excellent Gavi, and like we mentioned in that review, it’s refreshing to see new bottles like this arriving in stores. Sometimes the white section can get a little stale with the same wines, at least around the …
Regular readers will know we love finding white wine varietals at Costco that are a little outside the norm, and wines from Gavi fit the bill perfectly. Too many times, we pursue the Costco white wine section, and find all the usual suspects and incarnations of Chardonnay, Sauv Blanc and Pinot Grigio. Gavi originates from …
We were on the hunt for a new Costco white wine to review and this one almost slipped by us. But glad we found it and tasted it because it’s a winner. We also like finding new varietals, or blends like this, outside of the standard white wines you often find at Costco. Would love to see …
We’re always on the look out for wines we’ve never seen carried at Costco before, so this Riesling jumped out as something new to try. German Riesling is something you don’t see as often as we would like at Costco, and it’s often so good. This is a dry Riesling, which you can see indicated …
This one caught our eye because we’ve enjoyed the Westmount Pinot Noir in the past. Generally under $20, it’s a good buy in the Pinot Noir aisle. So we were curious about this Pinot Gris. Costco’s price of $12.79 is pretty good. Retail is $20 and we found it listed online for $13.99 at Total …
When we’re perusing the white wine aisle at Costco, this is precisely the kind of wine we are looking for. Something new, different and a little off the beaten path. You’re actually starting to see Godello bottles on more restaurant wine lists which is great. But it still remains a rather obscure Spanish white varietal …
Banfi is a super dependable name in Italian wine and their wines typically offer a good bang for the buck. We have found quite a few wines from them at Costco over the years, most recently their Chianti Classico, Centine red blend, and a couple years back even a Gavi. This is our first time …
Finding this bottle at Costco was a nice surprise. Argiolas produces a number of white and red wines that we’ve always enjoyed (their Turriga is a popular one on the higher end). If you also shop at Total Wine, you can find several of their more affordable (around $15) reds too (Costera and Perdera are …
It seems like the prices keep creeping up on Albarino as word gets out about how good they are. I put Gruner Veltliner in that same bucket. You used to see them under $15, and now that’s quite rare, and most are closer to $20. Except at Costco. This is exactly the kind of white …
This is always a tough bottle for me to review, and might be even trickier this year with this new 2020 vintage. As I’ve mentioned in prior reviews, I think I did figure it out a bit. This wine is situational. If it’s 100 degrees and you’re on the beach or a boat, and you …
This is the first time we’ve seen a bottle from Tablas Creek grace the Costco wine shelves, and it’s a very welcome addition. As you may know, Tablas Creek is a Paso Robles based winery co-founded by the Perrin family of Rhone/Beaucastel fame. Perrin wines, which we are big fans of, can run the gamut …
Here’s a fun one that is a nice addition to the Costco wine aisles. I’ve complained in the past about there not being enough “interesting” white wines at Costco. But with this white Rioja, my wishes have been answered. I love finding wines like this. It’s not super common to find white Rioja either, but …
This is exactly the kind of white wine that I’m on the lookout for at Costco; something a little off the beaten path, usually found in the wooden bins after you’ve passed all the California Chardonnay. We found another one of these just the other week. I’ve stated before here that I’d love to start seeing …
Here’s a great pick if you’re looking for an easy going, affordable summer wine to stock up on and enjoy all summer long. Italy is a really good place to look for Pinot Grigio, as we’ve written about before, and this bottle is a perfect example of the favorable quality to price ratio you can …
