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, […]
2019 Kirkland Signature Rioja Reserva
Here's one of our favorite Kirkland wines, making a slightly early appearance this year with the brand new 2019 vintage. We know this is a reader favorite, and it's a consistent value buy every year. The price is staying the same year to year at $7.89; we love to see that. And look at our […]
2019 Colossal Reserva Red Blend
Here's a great value play you can score at Costco when you're looking for a dependable red that won't break the bank. Usually in those cases, we fall to Spain or South America, but Portugal should never be overlooked. There are amazing wines coming out of there at prices that would be impossible to match […]
2021 Viberti La Gemella Barbera d'Alba
Here's a great Italian wine find right now in the aisles at Costco. Right away, we see that price ending in .49, which we've written about several times before. That indicates a special Costco price, and that's indeed what we have here. This bottle is $19.99 at Wine.com, and hovers around $16-$17 most other places […]
2022 Kirkland Signature Malbec Mendoza
The new vintages of popular Kirkland bottles keep rolling in. Next up, we have the Kirkland Mendoza Malbec, which is usually a good pick on the affordable side of things. And once again, the price remains $6.99 (same since the 2015 vintage). Can't beat that. We also have the same winemaker, Sergio Case, from Broquel, […]
2022 Kirkland Signature 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 […]
2021 Kirkland Signature Napa Valley Red Blend
We're getting a fresh batch of Kirkland wines hitting stores, and we've heard from readers there are several more out there, so hopefully we can get reviews up here for everyone. The Kirkland Napa Red Blend has really come a long way over the years. Since it's earliest intro as the 2014 Kirkland Meritage, the […]
2020 Madame de Beaucaillou Bordeaux
Very interesting find here, and we had to do some poking around online to figure out the full story. One of our all time favorite wines and favorite properties in Bordeaux is Ducru-Beaucaillou. We had the opportunity to visit and meet with their team a few years back, and every single thing about the winery, […]
2021 Seghesio Zinfandel
A few weeks back we reviewed the Kirkland Signature Sonoma County Old Vine Zinfandel, and we mentioned how much we'd love to see the Seghesio Zin come back. And then bam, look what shows up at our Costco shortly after. Ask and you shall receive. We should have asked for a lower price while we […]
2021 Kirkland Signature Willamette Valley Pinot Noir
We are happy to see this Pinot arriving in stores a little early this year. We typically see this in Q2, April-timeframe, and it's been a consistent winner over the years. The price remains $12.99, which is down from the $14.99 price tag we saw on this bottle for a few vintages. And it's always […]
2019 Canvasback Red Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon
What a surprise seeing this bottle show up at Costco. This is from Duckhorn's WA state property at Red Mountain, and long time readers will know we love these wines. Bang for the buck they are blazing a new path forward for great juice in the US right now. We're getting a pretty buy on […]
2021 Kirkland Signature Series Premier Cru Chablis
Finding this bottle is always a highlight at the beginning of the year. We've been big fans, particularly of the last couple vintages. A little bit of a surprise though. We are getting a price increase, up to $18.99 from a previous $17.49. Still, for Premier Cru Chablis coming in under $20 is a good […]
2020 Chateau Picadis Bordeaux Superieur
Ok, we have a new Bordeaux Superieur in the cheap seats. Long time readers know we love exploring these wines. The cheap seats refer to the aisles of stacked wines, versus those in the wooden boxes. In the cheap seats you never know what you're going to find. More than anything, the wines in the […]
2021 Kirkland Signature Chianti Classico Riserva
Here's the newest vintage of the Kirkland Chianti Classico hitting stores now. We had a little surprise with a Kirkland Chianti Classico Gran Selezione making a debut in Costco last month. While priced a little higher than the standard Chianti Classico that Gran Selezione was delicious and we've still seen it still lingering in stores, […]
2019 Castelli del Grevepesa Clemente VII Settimo Rosso di Toscana
This was a new find for us at Costco, a Tuscan blend from 2019 for $14.99 that looked interesting and worth a taste. Retail price on this bottle is around $20-$25 so we like Costco's price a lot. Also a 92 point callout from Wine Advocate. We couldn't determine the exact varietal makeup after poking […]
2019 Ravanal Gran Reserva Cabernet Sauvignon
This was quite the surprise. Not only a limited time discount, but featuring a Gran Reserva Cabernet from Chile; not something we see everyday in Costco. But we're glad we found it, and we continue to believe that places like Chile, and Portugal; Spain too and Australia is on the up and up - all […]
2020 Colene Clemens Dopp Creek Pinot Noir
We love finding new wines from new producers in the Pinot section, and here is an interesting one that caught our eye. This is from Oregon's Chehalem Mountains, southwest of Portland, near the mecca of Oregon Pinot. And we're big fans of this area, not only because we are UO Duck alum, but the Pinot […]
2021 Kirkland Signature Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon
It's always an exciting day when the latest vintage of the Kirkland Oakville Cab hits stores, and we'll tell you right off the bat, this is a vintage not to be missed. Despite all the inflationary pressures out there, the price on this wine remains $19.99, which is absolutely amazing for an Oakville wine, and […]
2021 Kirkland Signature Sonoma County Old Vine Zinfandel
This is always a fun Kirkland bottle to explore, and we don't see a lot of Zinfandel at Costco, at least in stores near us. We really would love to see the Seghesio Zin come back. It's been gone for a long time, and was a favorite of the blog. The price on this Kirkland […]
2018 Kirkland Signature Series Brunello di Montalcino
This popular Kirkland wine usually appears in Q4, so we were a little late finding it around us, although we did hear from several readers who found it last month. But here it is, and it's back with the same $19.99 price tag we love. You just can't beat scoring a good Brunello at that […]
2022 Kirkland Signature Moscato d'Asti
Here's a relatively new addition to the Kirkland wine portfolio that we've been putting off on tasting and reviewing, mostly because we prefer less sweet wines. But this one turned out to be a real winner. We know a lot of readers may enjoy this style, and the price is right at only $7.99. So […]
2014 Vina Olabarri Gran Reserva Rioja
This is quite the find in the Costco wine aisle, and just what we are looking for when picking wines to review for this site. Here's a Gran Reserva Rioja with nine years of age built in, and 94 points from Wine Enthusiast for $18.99. And it was amazing. Gran Reserva is the highest designation […]
Kirkland Signature Champagne Brut
It's been a little while since we've posted specifically about the Kirkland Champagne, which remains one of our favorite Costco wine buys, and an insane value for real French Champagne. It's appeared in several of our feature stories, but we wanted to revisit it with a focused review. The last time we posted was back […]
2021 Tooth & Nail Cabernet Sauvignon
This was a new find at Costco but a wine that we've tasted at a restaurant before, and we enjoyed it quite a bit. Long time readers will know that we are big fans of wines from Paso Robles, so we were thrilled to be able to taste this one again and get it up […]
Decoy Brut Cuvee Sparkling Wine
We typically find the Decoy line of wines from Duckhorn to give a decent bang for the buck, and we're seeing quite a few of them pop up at Costco nowadays. The last one we reviewed was the Sauvignon Blanc, which was pretty good. We were bigger fans of the Sonoma red blend, which we […]
Our Gift to You: Free French Wine eBook
Happy holidays everyone. Hope you all are enjoying some great Costco wines. As many of you may know, we wrote a book series to help people better understand and navigate some of the world's top wine regions, including France, Italy and Spain. We want to offer a special deal for Costco Wine Blog readers: a […]
2019 Intrinsic Cabernet Sauvignon
We have to go all the way back to December of 2016 to find our last review of this wine, although we’ve seen it multiple times at Costco since then and tasted it quite a few more times too. We must have overlooked how long it had been since we posted about it. And it’s a […]
2019 Kirkland Signature Chianti Classico Gran Selezione
Here's an exciting new addition to the Kirkland wine family, and we were pumped when readers told us this one had started to appear in their stores, and we were finally able to find it near us. This is a Chianti Classico Gran Selezione, which is the top of classification scale for Chianti, above Riserva. […]
2021 Il Poggione Rosso di Montalcino
This was an instant drop in the cart for us. Just the kind of wine we want to see land in Costco. First off, Rosso di Montalcino is what you want to see for a ridiculous quality to price ratio, and that's what happened here. Yes, not an inexpensive wine at $22.99, but it's $30 […]
2021 Kirkland Signature Gigondas
A popular Kirkland bottle is back with the latest 2021 vintage. We have been enjoying this one the past few years, and it remains a killer buy on juice from a premier region you just can't access for the same price anywhere else. So the price staying at $13.99 was a huge bonus. A couple […]
2021 Kirkland Signature Bordeaux Superieur
Here’s the new Kirkland Bordeaux Superieur arriving in stores right on time. For a while it was a Jan – Feb wine, but lately it’s been hitting in December. That’s good news if you’re looking for an inexpensive red to stock up on for the holidays. We instantly went to the price, $6.99 again, which […]
2021 Grounded Sauvignon Blanc by Josh Phelps
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 […]
2020 Kirkland Signature Saint-Julien Bordeaux
This was a surprise and delight. The inaugural 2019 vintage of this new Kirkland offering was in stores in January of this year, so we weren't on the lookout for the next one quite yet. But what a nice surprise, along with the price going down, albeit only a few cents, but we like it […]
2022 Kirkland Signature Russian River Pinot Noir
The Kirkland Russian River Pinot Noir is back in stores with the new 2022 vintage. This one can really vary in quality year to year in our opinion, and the last vintage (2021) was particularly good. We have the price remaining the same at $11.99 which is ridiculously low for grapes from this area, so […]
2022 Allan Scott Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc
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 […]
2023 Costco Wine Thanksgiving Picks
Thanksgiving is here upon us again, and we're going to look through some recent reviews to try to pick out some good wines you can (hopefully) find at Costco for the big meal. This is always a fun list (here's last years), and we tend to go a little all over the place in our […]
2019 Chateau du Lac Cotes de Bourg Bordeaux
Long time readers know that we love finding and tasting these "forgotten wines" that end up in the cheap seats (the rows of stacked wine boxes vs the wooden boxes). We call them the forgotten wines because you can often find wines from lesser known, or talked about regions, stuffed in between the usual suspects. […]
2021 Kirkland Signature Rutherford Cabernet Sauvignon
We were thrilled to see the 2021 vintage of this bottle hit stores. As far as we can tell, there was not a 2020 vintage, likely due to the Napa fires. So our fingers were crossed that a 2021 vintage would arrive, and here it is. Among the Kirkland wines from Napa, this ranks among […]
2020 Chateau Fombrauge Saint Emilion Bordeaux
Here's a new Saint Emilion Grand Cru that showed up at our Costco, and it's one that we've tasted and always enjoyed in the past. Usually a solid wine at a great value, and that's exactly what we found in the 2020 vintage. Costco's price was $35.99, which is totally fair for a wine of […]
2021 Villa Sparina Barbera
This is the second Barbera we’ve found at Costco in just a handful of weeks. What a treat to keep finding these (last one was delicious). If this bottle looks familiar, it’s because this is the same producer of the wonderful Gavi we found at Costco earlier this year. This short, stout bottle must be […]
