You gotta love a widely-available, quality #barberadasti like this. Polished black and purple bramble fruit, touch of forest floor earthiness. Lush, bright tart red/purple fruit up front in the mouth, cola, bit of vanilla mid-palate and medium tannins on a longish finish. Great 🍕 wine, prime QPR. #costcowines — 3 months ago

The wine pours a beautiful dark brick red. It has flavors of dried cranberries, boysenberries and maybe a kind of roasted meat finish. For the price of $15 at Costco it is very good. I’ll be buying it again. I don’t have much experience with Tuscan wines. This is a good starting point. #costcowines #tuscany #montepulcino #redwine — a year ago
I have never been disappointed by a Cru Beaujolais, though I admit the first day this #brouilly was closed and a touch unbalanced on the tart side. Wine fridge +1 day and it’s expressed itself pleasantly. Cooked raspberry, lighter cherry nose, lovely acid-forward balance with more pronounced fruit on the second day, understated mineral notes. Good decision to buy 3 bottles at less than $20 each @ #costcowines — a year ago
Give this one some time to open up. Wild cherry + dried cherries, touch of dried herbs on the nose. Medium plus body, juicy acidity and grippy tannins cruising out on a long finish. Lovely #chianticlassico #granselezione for under $20. #costcowines — 2 years ago
You’ll definitely want to decant this wine. Well over an hour after opening in the glass the initial dusty #bordeaux muted fruit wakes up fully, very youthful bramble fruit, purple jam on the nose. Mouthwatering acidity and generally soft tannins from the Merlot dominant blend with some more assertive tannins on the finish. 68% #merlot, 17% #cabernetsauvignon, 13% #petitverdot, 2% #cabernetfranc - clearly I got the impression this wine could easily cruise for another 5 years in the bottle. Excellent #costcowines value. — 2 years ago
a lot better than previous vintage: #costcowines dark fruit, spice, dried herbs, some licorice, tangy and juicy, kitchen sink blend, med bodied, very supple tannins and modest finish. — 7 days ago
textbook Barolo - not a hair out of place, all the favorites and a screaming good deal #costcowines — 3 months ago
#costcowines - fruit bomb, i'm sure this is a crowd pleaser, and i had hi hopes given the appellation but - alas, this lacked tannic structure and any depth aside from jammy dark fruit — 4 months ago
Lighter-style #bordeaux, youthful yet subtle black/purple fruit nose, medium body, chewy persistent tannins trailing each sip. Commendable QPR #costcowines. — 10 months ago
For the price a quite good #chianticlassicoriserva. Reticent bramble fruit on the nose. Palate features typical #sangiovese slightly spicy-earthy dark cherry, traces of cola and spice trailing off on the finish, nicely integrated at 5 years. Great QPR for under $20 - #costcowines — a year ago
Nice value #chinon - more modern, not as rustic and funky, muted dark fruit, less bell pepper notes (which I happen to love from #cabernetfranc) so a wider appeal style here with balance and weight on the tongue. #costcowines — 2 years ago
Good entry level #champagne , fresher, bright and crisp style though for ~$30 price point not any better than Kirkland Signature’s real champagne at $20. #costcowines — 2 years ago
The hype is real but not 95 pts - oh so decadent, so legit, speaks of place, generous, engaging, can't stop smelling this stuff! Great QPR #costcowines — 16 days ago
QPR out the wazoo - really delicious as a wine, but does not speak to Chianti. Mass produced for the crowds, smooth well- balanced and dare I say somewhat elegant: definitely fruit forward with oozing dark brooding berried fruit & cherry galore, vanilla & gentle subtle spice.

This wine pours a somewhat clear ruby red. It has a nice nose. The fruit is restrained. And after it’s been open for a little bit, the tannins really come through. This is an excellent wine that I got at Costco for $48. I would definitely re-buy it. It went well, although not a perfect match with the seafood linguine I had for my birthday at Mange Bene restaurant. #barolowine #italianwines #piedmontwines #nebbioli #costcowines — 7 months ago
Balanced, pretty #stemiliongrandcru #bordeaux blend. Not as earthy as other St. Em blends this one is a bit more fruit forward, once it opens up. Excellent QPR #costcowines — a year ago
Delicious #prosecco that’s a solid cut above typical mass market and grocery store brands. Distinctive tart cherry nose that carries through the taste. #costcowines — 2 years ago
A bit shy black and purple fruit aromas on this #riberadelduero. Medium plus body on palate; prominent acidity up front on palate, chewier tannins on the finish but with that tartness just so food friendly for ~$13, excellent QPR. #costcowines — 2 years ago

delightful: fragrant elegant smooth - this drinks like a high end Rosso di Montalcino, florals, red fruit galore along with herbs & earth - just gorgeous #costcowines — 3 days ago
