We thought this one might overdeliver and it does. This is a great Costco wine find. We’re big Bordeaux fans, and for $20, this is a score. Online the price seems to be closer to the $28 range, so it appears Costco’s bringing it in at a competitive buy. Suckling has gone in the low …
There are quite a few interesting things about this bottle we found at Costco, which we’ve never seen before. First is the mistake on the Costco placard, labeling this wine as a Rioja, which would lead you to believe it was comprised of Tempranillo. But the wine is actually from Alicante and is comprised of …
Here’s a popular Kirkland wine hitting stores right on schedule, usually in the Sept-Oct timeframe. We’ve heard from several readers who found this wine weeks before we did, so hopefully it’s beginning to make its way into more stores. Two things right off the bat. Yes, the price stayed the same at $10.99. That’s a …
This is the second year now (last time was Sept 2020) that this fantastic Rioja sees a huge limited time discount, taking what is already an amazing wine for $15, down to only $8.99. The discount is only around for another week, so grab these while you can. Retail is around $20, and you can …
It’s hard to believe it’s that time already, but here we are just closing out summer and bam, we get the Costco wine advent calendar hitting stores, alongside Christmas trees and holiday decorations. This is about the same time of the year when last years Advent Calendar dropped, first week of September. It always seems …
Ok, we’ll admit it, the label sucked us in pretty fast here. Love this design, and we couldn’t wait to flip the bottle around to see what this was all about. Usually we try to stay away from wines that are trying hard to be something, but this one (along with some of the Aussie …
We dropped this one in the cart just for purposes of exploration for this site. We’ve never seen or tasted this Argentinean red blend before. On the placard you’ll see the 92 points the wine received from Wine Advocate. We couldn’t find a true retail price for the bottle. Online it really varies but most …
We knew we had tasted this bottle a few times but a subsequent search of the site shows the last time we reviewed it was all the way back in April of 2016 with the 2013 vintage. So I’m glad we’re getting in a fresh review of a new vintage because this wine is once …
We can’t believe we ran into this wine at Costco. My Favorite Neighbor is among the darlings of the wine world right now it seems. Stories praising this wine seem to be on regular rotation on our Apple News feed. We first tried it in the 2018 vintage at a steakhouse (Flame in Springfield, MO …
Look what’s back in stores and right on time. We usually see the Kirkland Cotes De Provence Rose hit stores in the July 4th timeframe. And be aware, these bottles move fast. Like really fast. We wouldn’t be surprised to see them cleared out in the next few weeks. So if you’ve enjoyed it in …
Nothing pairs with summer like a crisp and delicious Sauvignon Blanc, and that’s exactly what we have here. This is our first time tasting this wine so we didn’t know what to expect but it definitely met and ultimately exceeded our expectations. Only doing the research now after having already tasted and making our notes, …
This is a classic Napa bottle that we were surprised, but delighted, to find at Costco. We’ve visited this winery a couple of times and have tasted many vintages of their Petite Sirah, always enjoying them, along with most of the other wines Stags’ Leap Winery offers. Note: Stags’ Leap Winery and Stag’s Leap Wine …
Finally, we found this. Just like many of you have trouble finding the wines we review here, we also sometimes have trouble finding the ones our readers recommend. Each trip to the store, we cross our fingers hoping to find them. The new Kirkland Chateauneuf has been out for a while, and readers have reported …
For those who follow our accounts on social media, you’ve no doubt seen a few people post about this bottle making a reappearance in stores right now. This is the Kirkland Signature Suscol Napa Cabernet, single vineyard. This wine debuted last year with the dynamite 2018 vintage, and pretty much everyone I heard from, including …
Here’s a Costco wine staple that we enjoy vintage to vintage. And it’s a little behind schedule this year, arriving in June vs November 1.5 years ago, when we reviewed the 2017 vintage. But better late than never, and we have high hopes for this 2018 vintage. Great news right off the bat is the …
