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 …
It looks like this is going to be more of an August wine arrival now compared to end of year as it had been for a while. But now two years in a row we’re getting it early. The price is staying the same as the prior vintage at $13.99 which is good since it …
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 always love finding and tasting new Italian white wines at Costco, especially this time of the year. There’s not a lot of information on the bottle so we poked around a bit online. This wine heralds from the Veneto region of Italy and is comprised of 70% Garganega, 30% Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc. Garganega …
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 always fun to run into one of these Langhe Nebbiolos. It’s not an everyday occurance at Costco, maybe a handful a year. The last one we tasted and reviewed was very nice. As we mentioned in that review, outside of the amazing Kirkland Barolo, finding good Barolo under $30 is hard to come by. …
It’s been 30 days since we were alerted to the existence of this new wine in the Kirkland Portfolio. During that time we have driven to five different Costco stores around Atlanta (multiple times) looking for it, and finally found it last night, thanks to reader JJ for giving us a heads up that it …
It’s been two years since we last tasted and reviewed this bottle. That was the 2019 vintage which we gave 87 points and were impressed at the quality for the very low $6.99 price point. That puts it right on par with the Kirkland Cotes du Rhone Villages, which is also $6.99, and we’ve scored …
A fun new find at Costco from a favorite producer. This is the Chardonnay from Wines of Substance, a Charles Smith wine brand. You might know Charles Smith from his Kirkland K Vine series, and you might remember Wines of Substance from their very delicious CS Cabernet we tasted a while back. Consistently, high quality …
This was a new one for us that popped up with a hefty limited time discount that obviously caught our eye. That’s $10 off the already very good Costco price. We found this bottle retailing for $45, and listing elsewhere including Wine Enthusiast for $35. That publication also scored the wine 88 points, which we …
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 …
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. …
An interesting find here. First off, one of the largest limited time discounts we’ve ever seen, percentage-wise. We had several readers alert us to this one, so we were excited when we saw it in stores by us. Costco’s regular price is $19.99, and until July 14, it’s reduced by 50% to only $9.99. On …
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 …
