Every time I visit Costco this summer, I see more and more bubbly Rosé bottles gracing store shelves. We just reviewed the very tasty and affordable ($6.99) Kirkland Prosecco Rosé, which we recommend. On my last trip, this Cava Brut Rosé stood out for a couple of reasons. First, it was on an end cap …
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 …
We first tasted the Jax Y3 Chardonnay a year ago after finding the 2016 vintage at Costco. I’d heard a few readers buzzing about it, the wine was highly rated, and Costco’s price was great at $13.99. Turned out, we loved the wine. Now the 2019 vintage is making its way into stores. You’ll notice …
We’ve had some fun tasting through a few of the Pinot Noirs at Costco right now that are priced under $20. We tasted the Cloudline (Willamette) and Rodney Strong (Russian River), enjoyed both and went 88 points on each one. Let’s move to another area known for amazing Pinot Noir, Monterey county and the sustainable …
Summertime drinking always finds a nice fit with white wines, and several readers have been asking for more white wine reviews which I plan to do. But I also enjoy a good Pinot Noir during the warmer months. So on my last trip to Costco I found a few that I wanted to taste and …
We thought we’d mix it up with a little feature where we’d answer the most common questions we receive from our readers. This site started more than ten years ago and has grown far beyond what we ever thought possible. It’s created a great community of people all looking for really good wine bargains from …
This new addition to the Kirkland wine family started appearing in stores a couple weeks back, and finally hit my store in the Atlanta area. It was also featured in the latest issue of the Costco Connection magazine. A Prosecco Rosé almost seems like a no brainer given the wine community’s current love for bubbly …
We tasted and reviewed the 2018 vintage of the Cloudline Pinot Noir from Costco last year and really enjoyed it. This bottle is especially appealing because it’s produced by the Drouhin Family who have been making wine in France’s Burgundy region since 1880. So they have a little experience with Pinot Noir, and are usually …
Here’s a Sauvignon Blanc I’ve always been curious about. Key word on the label is “Rutherford” which fans of the Kirkland Rutherford Cabernet will be familiar with. It’s one of the top regions within Napa Valley, and a personal favorite. Provenance makes a delicious Rutherford Cabernet Sauvignon that we’ve tasted and enjoyed; that one is …
Here’s a Kirkland bottle we’ve been waiting to arrive, especially as the weather warms up. I know a few readers have spotted it recently, so it should be making its way through stores nationwide right now. This is likely the fastest moving Costco wine that we track. If you spot it, buy it. While I …
It’s heatin’ up around the Atlanta area, and there are few things tastier on a hot day than a delicious brut rosé. We recently enjoyed the Gerard Bertrand An 825 Cremant de Limoux Brut Rose we found at Costco for $14.49. Also, the Lucien Albrecht Cremant d’Alsace Brut Rosé that is a few dollars more …
This is perhaps the most interesting wine I’ve tasted in a long time, and it is the first time I’ve tasted a “white” Pinot Noir. I felt pretty confident in the hands of Willamette Valley Vineyards because they are experts with Pinot Noir. We’ve highlighted quite a few of their Chardonnays and Pinot Noirs over …
It seems like people around the wine world are talking a lot about Chianti Classico at the moment. I know one of my favorite wine writers, Eric Asimov from the NY Times, is a huge fan of them right now. We’ve always enjoyed them as well, finding a lot of quality at great prices, so …
Malbec is such as good place to find value in the wine world today, so bumping into this one for $7.99 at Costco caught my interest. This bottle is $14.49 at Total Wine, and around $12 elsewhere online, so Costco’s price is amazing. The wine inside is too, making this a big time Costco winner. …
Here’s a fun new Costco wine find that I’ve heard about from multiple readers who have already found it and enjoyed it – the “Hello Summer” mixed wine multi pack that contains 12 375ml bottles from around the world. Sound kind of familiar? If you were a fan of the Costco Wine Advent Calendars we …
