This is fast becoming one of our favorite staple Pinot Grigios at Costco, so when we saw the latest 2023 we had to grab it to see if it held up. And it did. We reviewed the 2021 vintage back in 2022 and found it to be a delightful wine that we rated a solid ..read more

Thank you to a reader Matthew in Palm Beach Gardens Florida who spotted this one. The Kirkland Ribera del Duero is back! Here are pics of the 2018 vintage. And this is big news because the last time we reviewed this bottle was the 2014 vintage. We thought it had disappeared....until now. Keep an eye ..read more

This is a fun and inexpensive red blend from Portugal that checks a lot of boxes. We're huge fans of Portuguese wines right now and find them to represent extreme values as evidenced here. This bottle is $7.99 at Costco, and looks to go for around $11-13 elsewhere online, so a pretty nice Costco discount ..read more

Alright, here we are back with the latest Kirkland Chianti Classico, historically a bottle that has shown up in the bottom ranks of the Kirkland wines for us. We were lucky to see the Kirkland Gran Selezione hit Costco shelves recently for its second vintage, which drastically upped the quality of the Italian side of ..read more

So this really cool reader of the blog, Brandon, thought we should create our own subreddit for the blog, and even offered to set it up. And so it's live (r/CostcoWineBlog) with a few people already finding it and making some posts. This could be a great way to continue to grow and interact with ..read more

Look what arrived a little early this year; what a surprise and a treat. This popular and always delicious Kirkland wine usually drops in the May timeframe. This marks the fifth vintage of this wine so it's a relative newcomer to the Kirkland wine portfolio, but one of our favorites. We are glad to see ..read more

We love finding a new Chablis on Costco shelves, and we love it even more when Drouhin is the producer. Most recently we found their Saint Veran Chardonnay at Costco, and keep an eye out for Cloudline Pinot Noir from their Oregon property. Both delicious. This Chablis is a delicious wine too at a pretty ..read more

This is the second wine from a top Bordeaux property in the Pessac-Leognan region which we adore. Costco's price is pretty good considering retail is around $35. We've tasted the grand vin wine from this property multiple times, and have always enjoyed it, so we were curious how this second wine would fare. It is ..read more

There's a brand new Kirkland Rioja out there, spotted first by our reader Dave P at a Costco store in Bend, Oregon. Price was $6.99 and Costco item number is 917056. This is actually slightly less expensive than the current Kirkland Rioja Reserva. Ironically, the item number is the same. Interesting development for sure, and ..read more

We started hearing rumblings last week that the new Oakville was out there, and happily found it on our last visit. This bottle usually arrives in Q1 every year, coming in a little early last year (Jan) but right on time with this 2022 vintage. Of course, the first thing to notice is the price ..read more
