Each of the 23 wines are labeled “highly recommended,” “recommended” or “not recommended.”
Tan Vinh and Owen Bargreen | The Seattle TimesThis is our largest Costco wine roundup to date, 23 bottles, with about half earning a “highly recommended” grade from either Owen Bargreen, a Level Two sommelier, or myself.
Owen: Some cherry, cranberry and salted sourdough bread. It’s a touch sweet but shows a pretty core of red fruit flavors. Drink 2022-25.Tan: You can find good prosecco under $15, but it’s damn near impossible to find a prosecco rosé this good in this price range. Costco raised their prosecco rosé by $1 this year, but it’s still a steal.Kirkland Signature Brut Champagne, 12% alcohol, $19.
Owen: Fresh and vibrant on the palate, this shows unripe pear, green apple Jolly Rancher and jalapeño pepper. I think this offers a bit more than the last vintage in terms of texture. There might not be a New Zealand sav blanc this good for under 10 bucks, so buy a case and enjoy when the weather is less frigid. Drink 2022-24.Tan: In years past, this has been one of my favorite whites at Costco. Not so this year.
Owen: Aged for 24 months in oak and an additional three months in the bottle, this offers leather notes alongside red rose petals on the nose. The palate is soft and inviting, with red fruit flavors and earthy tones. Not the most complex Riserva, but you won’t find one this good from this region for under $10. Drink 2022-27.Tan: I love this chianti, Owen. It’s acidic and dry, with a burst of red fruit, and lots of cloves and clay on the finish.2017 Kirkland Signature Brunello di Montalcino, 14.
Owen: This is an unusual blend for the region, combining 76% merlot with the remainder cabernet sauvignon. It’s soft and approachable, showing good viscosity and weight. Cassis, blackberry cobbler, coffee grounds and wet gravel on the palate. Tannic, this wine needs at least two hours of air if enjoying in its youth, but it is well made. Drink 2022-32.Tan: Yes, well made, but not one of Costco’s best deals. You can find some stellar Bordeaux in this price range.
