Here’s a fun find, a Russian River Valley Sauvignon Blanc at a great Costco price of only $12.69. I do love Sauvignon Blanc on hot summer days so figured we’d give this a shot and see how it turned out. The short answer: this is a delicious, super crisp, summer wine at a fantastic price. …
It’s officially Sauvignon Blanc season, and it’s a varietal that can really vary in style depending on where it originates in the world. Some love the grassy New Zealand SBs; others like more of the finesse of a Sancerre. Still others love them from Napa. Today we’re going to go South to explore a Chilean …
It’s been a really long time since we last reviewed the Kirkland Ti Point Sauvignon Blanc. It was actually a little over four years ago, with this review of the 2014 vintage. One thing to note from the current vintages compared to the past, is that the price actually went down to $6.99, from $7.99, …
This is a delicious Napa Sauvignon Blanc at an outstanding Costco price of only $12.99. A quick Google search shows the retail is around $18-$20 and it certainly drinks above its Costco price point. Wine Spectator went so far as to give the bottle 89 points and I’ll come in right around that same rating. …
I worked at a restaurant in New York that had an excellent Italian Sauvignon Blanc by the glass. I remember people’s reactions when they would try it, a mixture of surprise and delight, and for this reason I would often recommend it. A lot of people tend to associate Sauvignon Blanc with either grapefruit, freshly-cut …
Here’s an interesting New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc that we found at our Costco for $16.99, which is more than we usually pay for wines like this, so we wanted to see what it was all about. Initially, and upon a quick glance, we thought this was the more typical Sauvignon Blanc from New Zealand’s popular …
I love New Zealand Sauvignon Blancs on a hot day and now that things have finally turned in that direction (at least down here in the Atlanta area), it’s time to start adding a few new ones to the shopping cart. We just reviewed the Ciel Bleu d’Aquitane Sauvignon Blanc from France that’s available for …
Until now, the least expensive Sauvignon Blanc I’ve seen at Costco was the Kirkland Signature Ti Point, for $7.99, which is actually a pretty good buy for what it is. But here’s a French Sauvignon Blanc that comes in at only $5.99. With summer approaching, I was curious about this one as I love a …
This wine caught my eye because of the great price and 90 Point Wine Spectator rating. It appeared in select Costco clubs a couple of weeks ago featured at a price that is easily a few dollars less than most other retailers currently offer. This is a great time of year for Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc. …
So it’s a hot Atlanta day and I’m by a pool with friends who are mostly drinking Creature Comforts and other GA- based craft beers, but today, like many days, I’m sipping on white wine, and a good one at that. It is the Long Meadow Ranch Sauvignon Blanc from Rutherford. At $15.99 at my …
Every now and then Costco will get a wine for a mega-good bargain price. This one jumped out at me yesterday. I noticed first that the price was significantly less than normal retail and second that the wine has been immediately deleted (marked with an asterisk). Robert Mondavi originally coined the marketing term “Fume Blanc” …
I admit I’m a sucker for New Zealand Sauvignon Blancs, especially as the weather warms up, although lately I’ve been leaning more towards Vino Verdes when I’m looking a simple refreshing, no thought to it, white wine. I wish Costco would offer some Vino Verde choices, but I have yet to see any near me. …
I typically find St Supery wines to be good values and this one is no exception. Last summer I was a little down on (and tired of) Sauvignon Blancs and became much more interested in other white varietals. But I’ve turned a corner, as some these new world Sauvignon Blanc are starting to get interesting …
I really wish I had gotten into this one prior to the warm summer months beginning to come to an end. This is a summer treat, a Sauvignon Blanc that’s crisp, refreshing, packed with flavor, and is interesting enough to keep my attention on every taste. Sancerre bottles like this are typically fantastic values when …
Alright, so I’ve had this bottle for a while. I meant to review it shortly after I first bought it, but alas- it was overlooked in the sea of Marlborough Sauvignon Blancs that I’ve got stacked on the fourth shelf of my refrigerator. Be on the lookout for a comparative review of those in the …
