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 ..read more

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 ..read more

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 ..read more

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 ..read more

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.

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 ..read more

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 ..read more

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 ..read more
