Drank 11/25/19. Decent pairing with burgers.
Nose of plums, some spice, underbrush, and some cherry cola. Mixed red and black fruit on the palate with some spice notes. A tad ripe on the medium finish. Overall one of the best $7 wines I've had.
3/21/7/3/3 +50 = 87 pts
Drank again 2 days later with lamb chops. It made for a much better pairing and more enjoyable wine. I would bump this up another point or two.

$7, tastes like much more. Candied cherry and light vegetal note on the nose. Dry, black cherry and plum on the palate, good acid balance and a note of cola and earthiness. Long finish. Much more interesting than the price would lead you to expect.

This was a big surprise. Transitions significantly over a few hours. Opens with lavender and leather, with some beautifully weaved in brett. Quickly moves into blackberry, incense, and chalky/clay minerality. Later pivots to a more broad floral style, Luden's, and bitter dark chocolate.

Whoever made this for Costco should be ashamed of themselves! This is the biggest Bullshit bottle of over extracted junk I've ever tasted. Trash!

First time I've been able to find the Kirkland Côtes du Rhône villages, and I'm impressed. Raspberry, dried cranberries, as well as notes of classic provencal herbs on the nose. This is followed by a bright palate of cherry and raspberry with earthy undertones of clay and leather. A serious value, and makes me wish I would have bought more than one. It also paired perfectly with homemade coconut chicken tikka marsala! ($7) [4/10/20]

It's all about QPR! I was hoping to find the Kirkland Chablis @Severn Goodwin unfortunately my Costco did not deliver! I remember that this little Rhone wine in the Kirkland lineup rated decently! Red berries..earth...licorice... jam...light profile overall
Finish is a bit off. QPR....decent table wine....for $6.99 I will keep a few of these on hand...

tastes and smells like a Cotes du Rhone. Lacks the nuance and complexity but for $7 hits it mark.
