Here’s a new Sauvignon Blanc hitting Costco stores that’s a fresh change of pace. That’s because it’s from South Africa, a region we don’t see too often in the Costco wine aisles. And that’s a shame because there are some delicious wines coming out of there, white, rose and red, frequently at very good prices. …

It’s always nice to find a new wine from Gerard Bertrand at Costco. We’ve had so many good reds, rose and whites from them over the years, and they just consistently deliver with each bottle. Our two most recent reviews of their wines were the Saint-Chinian An 1877, and the An 825 Cremant de Limoux …
Here’s a new one we have yet to try, and it’s an organic Sauvignon Blanc from Chile, so a little outside the standard lineup in the white aisle, which we are always on the lookout for. The price is very competitive, coming in at $11.99 at Costco, when online we see it going for around …
Sauvignon blanc fans who haven’t explored the terroir of Pouilly-Fume are really missing out. Here’s a nice place to start that exploration for $20. We’ve tasted and reviewed a few bottles from J de Villebois, including another very good Sauvignon Blanc from Touraine and their basic Pinot Noir which was decent. We found those wines …
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 …
This was one of the biggest no brainer wine picks of all time. A Sauvignon Blanc from France’s Touraine appellation for $12.99. Touraine is in the Loire Valley of France, which fans of Loire will instantly think Sancerre when they think Sauvignon Blanc from the region. And as they should; we adore Sancerre. But Sancerre, …
We had several readers tip us off that this bottle was arriving in Costco stores, and we were thrilled to find it on our last trip. We bought three right away, but maybe should have picked up more. This one will sell out quickly. As you can see this is the 2022 vintage, and we …
Obviously the name Phelps caught our attention with this bottle. And the price tag too at only $8.99. Online we’re seeing this bottle sell for up to $18 (Wine.com). Retail seems to be $15. And once we got tasting, the wine is pretty good, so $8.99 is a steal. The wine has pulled down a …
Here’s a new Sauvignon Blanc from Marlborough that popped up in our Costco store that looked interesting. We noted in our recent review of the delicious Invivo X by Sarah Jessica Parker (a wine that surpassed expectations) that we hadn’t reviewed many of the New Zealand offerings arriving in Costco. On the heels of the …
We hate to admit it, but we kind of forgot about this wine until we saw it again on our most recent trip to Costco. It’s been three years since we last tasted, and thoroughly enjoyed it, so we were pumped to see the new 2022 hit stores. Costco’s price has crept up just a …
It’s been a little while since we’ve reviewed a New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc from Costco, and this one popped up on our last visit and was a wine that we had always wanted to try. It’s a collaboration between Sarah Jessica Parker and New Zealand winery Invivo. There is also a French Rose as part …
We don’t see too many Bordeaux blancs in the Costco wine aisles and it’s too bad because they are really fun whites, usually inexpensive, and perfect when the weather is super hot like it is right now across much of the country. Costco’s price was $14.99, which seems pretty good since it looks to be …
Finding this bottle at Costco helps close the story of the mystery Chablis we encountered a few weeks ago. In a rare mistake somewhere along the supply chain (and isolated to just our store we believe), bottles of the Simonnet Febvre Chablis were put in bins at Costco where this Sauvignon Blanc should have been. …
Chile isn’t always the first place you think of when looking for world class Sauvignon Blanc, but it will be higher on our list after tasting this one. Wow, this is a beautiful Sauvignon Blanc that caught us by surprise. The wine hails from the Limari Valley in Chile, located about 300 miles north of …
We love seeing new bottles from Stag’s Leap Wine Cellars hit the shelves at Costco and this AVETA Sauvignon Blanc is one that we’ve never seen before, at least around the Atlanta area Costco stores we frequent. Previously, as far as white wines go from Stag’s Leap Wine Cellars, we’ve reviewed and enjoyed their Karia …
