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 […]
2019 Etude Grace Benoist Ranch Carneros Pinot Noir
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 […]
2022 Brancaia Chianti Classico
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 […]
2021 Giribaldi Langhe Nebbiolo
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. […]
2022 Kirkland Signature Vacqueyras
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 […]
2021 Jean Louis Grande Reserve Cotes-du- Rhone
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 […]
2021 Charles Smith Wines of Substance CH Chardonnay
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 […]
2022 Circumference Cabernet Sauvignon
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 […]
2018 Tapiz Black Tears Malbec
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 […]
2022 Our Origin The Pledge Sauvignon Blanc
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. […]
2021 Bodegas Luis Gurpegui Muga Rioja 147 Aniversario
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 […]
2020 Kirkland Signature Barolo
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 […]
2022 King Estate Pinot Gris
This is a Costco staple white wine that we know a lot of readers have enjoyed. And we have too; we just haven't reviewed it on the site in a very long time (2012 vintage). King Estate is a solid Oregon producer; their Acrobat Pinot Gris was a Costco mainstay for a while, and was […]
New Kirkland Vacqueyras
Hi everyone. This marks our first "News" post. We want CostcoWineBlog.com to be your go to source for all the latest Costco wine info. We have an amazing reader base all around the world, and we constantly get emails about new wine finds, such as this Vacqueyras from Kirkland. So we added a new menu […]
2023 Kirkland Signature Pinot Grigio Friuli
We've skipped a couple vintages of this one. Not so much on purpose but rather it just seems to slide by the way side a bit. But for what it is, and at this price point, we know quite a few readers who buy it often and really enjoy it. So we're back after a […]
2022 Kirkland Signature Carneros Pinot Noir
Hello Costco wine fans. Today we have the latest vintage of the Kirkland Carneros Pinot Noir. Historically, not a favorite of the blog among the Kirkland Pinot Noirs. We had a few vintages of this bottle we liked some time ago but lately it's been falling a little flat. It's too bad since the price […]
2018 Condado de Oriza Ribera del Duero Reserva
This $12.99 Ribera del Duero was one of our top Costco wine finds last year, and it made an appearance on our annual Best of the Year list. That was the 2017 vintage which we rated 92 points. And now the 2018 vintage is hitting Costco stores, and it is coming in at the same […]
2022 Gerard Bertrand Cote des Roses Sauvignon Blanc
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 […]
2021 Koyle Costa La Flor Sauvignon Blanc
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 […]
2023 Torre Oria Rose Pinot Noir Spain
This was kind of an interesting new find in the Rose aisle, and we figured we give it a shot to let you know what to expect. This is Rose from Spain made from Pinot Noir; not a varietal you see all the time in Spanish Rose. Often these Spanish rose, and Spanish bubbly rose, […]
How To Make Really Delicious and Super Inexpensive Margaritas From Costco
Time for a little change of pace for the Wine Blog. At a friend, and fellow Costco lover's party, we had the chance to play around with the Kirkland Golden Margarita and Kirkland Tequila Reposado. While we're not tequila or margarita aficionados, we'd like to think we can taste a good drink when we have […]
2023 Kirkland Signature Cotes De Provence Rose
We love seeing this one arrive in stores in May. That trend started with the last vintage, and it allows us to enjoy this bottle all summer long. Previously it was hitting shelves in July. We also love seeing the price stay the same year to year at $7.99. That's an absolute steal for a […]
2022 Domaine Mickael Mothe Chablis
Here's a new Chablis for us hitting stores right now. We always enjoy tasting through these, and especially love drinking them outside when the weather is warm. The Kirkland Chablis arrive in February this year, so likely long gone from most stores. We found this bottle to be a nice replacement, same price, same rating, […]
2021 Harvey and Harriet Red Blend
Just a couple of months ago, we found the latest vintage of one of our favorite California wines, My Favorite Neighbor. It was back in Costco stores for the third straight vintage and we were pumped to find it, scoring it 94 points. The wine is produced by Booker vineyards and runs $47 at Costco. […]
2021 Bodegas Manzanos 111 Cabernet Sauvignon Navarra
A regular reader of the site who is good at sniffing out Costco wine values alerted us to this bottle, on sale with a limited time discount (thanks Anne). Costco's normal price is $11.99 which is already nice since retail is around $17 and online the bottle goes for $15. Until 5/19 though, you can […]
2021 Kirkland Signature Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
The Alexander Valley Cabernet from Kirkland seems to slip past us some years. It's been around for ten years and while we're not sure if they produced a vintage every single year, we've only tasted a handful. One thing we see is the price is the same as it has been since the 2012 vintage […]
2022 J de Villebois Pouilly-Fume
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 […]
2021 Kirkland Signature Suscol Vineyard Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
Back again, and we say thank you. This Suscol Vineyard Cabernet from the Kirkland label is a relatively new wine in the Kirkland portfolio, but one that we've always enjoyed. Sometimes these special wines will fizzle out after a few vintages, so it's nice to see this one back in stock, and after tasting this […]
2022 Kirkland Signature Chateauneuf du Pape
One of our favorite Kirkland wines is hitting shelves earlier than ever. The last vintage appeared at the end of May which was a month earlier than the vintage before that. And we'll take it. The Kirkland Chateauneuf du Pape is always a fun one to explore, and this vintage lands among the highest rated […]
A Visit to Costco in Japan
Curious what Costco looks like in Japan, and how their wine selection compares to the U.S.? So are we, and we had a chance to visit a Costco in Kawasaki Japan, just south of Tokyo. It turned out to be a fun trip with a few interesting surprises. Let’s go. We heard Costco stores in Japan […]
2021 Rossofouco Barbera D’Asti
We’re seeing some new Italian reds hitting Costco stores, and it’s not the usual regions and varietals, which is exciting for us wine nerds. Just in the past couple months, we found an Aglianico, Barbera D’Alba and Rosso di Toscana that were all very tasty and available at a great Costco price. Now we have […]
2020 Luis Duarte Rubrica Vinho Regional Alentejano
Absolute deliciousness from this red blend from Portugal. Regular readers know we love the quality and value you can find in Portuguese wines today, and we are always hoping to see more of them at Costco. We were introduced to this bottle from an importer / distributor we've met through this site. We typically don't […]
2021 Tassajara Pinot Noir
We had a few readers write in to recommend this Costco Pinot Noir, and we were excited to find it on our most recent trip. The story we heard is that there is a highly drinkable and rather inexpensive Pinot that needed to be tasted and reviewed for this site. And that's exactly what we […]
2022 Pazo de Villarei Albarino
An easy buy here on this Albarino we've never seen at Costco before and coming in at $13.99. Spain just overdelivers in so many ways and Albarino is one of them. These are such fun white wines and a nice change of pace from the usual white wine suspects. Online this wine is ranging from […]
2022 Comte de la Chevaliere Sancerre
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 […]
2019 Vincent & Gabriel Fournier Les Sizies Beaune 1er Cru
Burgundy time, and we found a new one that looks interesting. A Beaune 1er Cru at Costco for $42.99 and we scooped it up right away. There's not much information online about this bottle. Turns out, the Costco placard hit the nail right on the head saying "a little muted at first but opening w/ […]
2019 D’Angelo Aglianico Del Vulture
Regular readers have heard us ask for new grapes and regions to hit Costco shelves, and here’s exactly what we’re looking for. Aglianico is a key grape varietal in southern Italy that is starting to get the attention it deserves in the US now at wine shops and restaurants. We’re seeing it way more now than […]
2016 Bodegas Casa Primicia Vina Diezmo RV Reserva Rioja
We've never tasted this one before and wasn't sure what to expect, but a $12 Rioja Reserva with seven years of age on it at Costco, needed to be checked out. And glad we did. This is a stunning wine at a ridiculously low price. Online we see it going for as high as $42. […]
2021 My Favorite Neighbor Cabernet Sauvignon
Very nice to see this one make an appearance in Costco for its third year in a row. Long time readers know we adore this wine, going 95 points on the 2019 vintage, and another 95 points on the 2020 vintage. We are seeing a small $1 price increase, but Costco's price still remains well […]
2019 Domaine du Grapillon d'Or 1806 Merlot - Caladoc
What an interesting find this turned out to be. We were going to buy it anyway just because the two varietal blend included Caladoc, which is something you don't see that often. Caladoc is a crossing of Grenache and Malbec primarily found in Southern France. But the real kicker was when we turned the bottle […]
