Just a few weeks ago we reviewed the Cune Albarino and mentioned in that post how much we enjoyed the red wines from Cune. And then our latest trip to Costco, we found this one, and as a bonus it’s a Gran Reserva. Can’t beat that, and for $20, which is a fantastic price for …

Of course we had to scoop up this new Barolo the minute we saw it, especially at that $23.99 price point. That puts it in striking range of the always amazing, and fan favorite, Kirkland Barolo which is $19.99. Sometimes these inexpensive Barolos can be hit or miss, and luckily this one turned out to …
We went into this Costco trip specifically looking to find the new Kirkland Cotes du Rhone Villages that we heard is starting to appear in stores, but came out with one of our most highly anticipated wines of the year. And it did not disappoint. Seeing this bottle arrive in September is really throwing the …
Here’s a new addition to the Pinot Noir aisle, at least around the stores we frequent in the Atlanta area. And we’re really happy we found it. It’s hard to find quality Pinot Noir under $20 but this one hits the mark. We just reviewed the latest vintage of the Four Graces Pinot from Willamette …
We always enjoy tasting new vintages of wines we love and the Four Graces Pinot is one of those bottles we go back to again and again. This is just superb Pinot Noir from Willamette Valley every time we taste it, and the new 2022 vintage hitting Costco shelves did not disappoint. We have previously …
One of our favorite Kirkland wines, and many readers’ favorite too, is back in stores with the new 2022 vintage. Right on time too as we reviewed the 2021 vintage August 12 of last year. The price stayed the same at $22.99, which is good since it had climbed up to $23.99, and fell back …
We’ve had a few readers bring this bottle to our attention, and it’s a Costco Pinot that we have yet to review for the site. We had the chance to visit Etude winery several years ago and taste many of the different Pinots they produce; enjoyed them very much so it’s nice to see this …
Here’s a new Chianti Classico hitting Costco shelves that caught our eye. Regular readers know we adore these wines and find them to be tremendous values right now in the wine world. And this one is right on the mark. Costco’s price is $22.99 and that seems to be about the same as we found …
It’s been five years since we’ve seen this wine grace Costco shelves, and it’s really nice to see it back again. We don’t think we’ve spent more on a single bottle of Malbec since the last time we bought this one, which was the 2013 vintage that we rated a solid 93 points. Most Malbec …
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 …
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 …
Absolute deliciousness from this red blend from Portugal. Regular readers know we love the quality and value you can find in Portuguese wines today, and we are always hoping to see more of them at Costco. We were introduced to this bottle from an importer / distributor we’ve met through this site. We typically don’t …
It’s always nice to find new bottles of Sancerre arriving at Costco, especially as the much-loved Kirkland Sancerre seems to now be gone or near gone at most places we’ve seen. This bottle is a couple bucks more but well worth it for Sancerre fans. And Costco’s $21.99 price tag represents a nice discount compared to …
Regular readers have heard us ask for new grapes and regions to hit Costco shelves, and here’s exactly what we’re looking for. Aglianico is a key grape varietal in southern Italy that is starting to get the attention it deserves in the US now at wine shops and restaurants. We’re seeing it way more now than …
