The Kirkland 10 year tawny port is probably the best value in the store, but not always available. I hear its the same wine as Fonseca 10 year tawny. Quite a value.
Who the hell did the review for the Pinot Noir? Pinot Noir that presents full-bodied is probably blended with something else. Pinot Noir by its very character is supposed to be light bodied. Depending upon whether it comes from California or Burgundy, it can be fruity or it can be more earthy. While Napa Pinots aren't my favorites (I prefer Sonoma Coast, Central Coast, Willamette, and ,duh, Burgundy) that's simply a matter of taste. Whoever did the review needs to retake a class or talk to someone who actually knows the variety. This is the one review that actually ticked me off.
I wanted to praise a cabernet sauvignon, Peaks & Tides, sold at Aldi's. It's as good any cab I've ever purchased, including those I paid $30 for a bottle. I took it to a party and it got rave reviews from everyone who tried it. They have not been keeping it in stock very consistently, so I suggest calling around to find an Aldi's where it's in stock.
After such a poor description of the very first wine (the Carneros pinot noir), it calls all subsequent descriptors of wines into question. The only useful information is the price points!
I've used the Kirkland Chardonnay 1.5l bottle as my daily wine for years. Now the box 3.0l version is out here so I bought a case. Same decent wine, but TERRIBLE packaging! The spout barely clears the package making it easy to spill while pouring. Worse yet, the flow decreases dramatically as you get within a few glasses of the end. Then when it finally stopped pouring, I tore the box open and found there was about 2 glasses still left folded in the plastic bladder! I'm going back to the bottle.
You lost all credibility when you described Pinot Noir. Pinot Noir is not by definition "bold, full bodied and meant to be drank with rich decadent food", that is unless you're drinking Meomi, which is bastardized Pinot Noir. Pinot Noir is "refined, subtle, light to medium bodied with bright acidity and silky tannins". It and would not all pair well with rich decadent food". It pairs with turkey, salmon, lamb, mushrooms & lighter cheeses. You clearly have no idea what you're speaking about.
This review of Kirkland wines can't be more wrong. First off Brunello is agreed for 5 years not three and is fantastic. So it's the Pinot... Although they are correct about the Cab
Vintage matters with these wines. Plus, some prefer sweet wine while others would spit that out. I'd say try all of it and decide for yourself. It's affordable enough for you to have a wine tasting at home. Invite friends over to make it more fun!
What do you think of Kirkland brand wines?
Pinot Noir isn't suppose to be bold and heavy. Obviously whomever wrote this know nothing about wines. Mashed may be smashed.
This. Whoever wrote this probably thinks all reds should taste like a Cabernet Sauvignon.
I beg your pardon, Pinot Noir is very light.
I am a Kirkland Pinot Grigio fan; it's amazing with grilled fish and seafood... five bucks.. unbeatable!!!

The Kirkland Sonoma Chardonnay is a staple on our home, we love it.
I want a sweet one, which one y’all recommend??

The only problem with this is that I would then have to go into an Aldi’s and I have more self respect than that!
@@Kell4088 Why is Costco more respectable than Aldi's?

When someone tell me that pinot noir is a bold and full bodied wine.. I tend to not pay attention anymore, sorry.

that sauv blanc cost me $5 at my costco
“Pinot Noir is meant to be bold and full bodied.”
…and we’re done.
How did they not mention the Kirkland Suscol vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon.
Funny and informative!😂
Full bodied Pinot is something I never expect
Pinot noir isn't bold and full bodied....
Sangiovese is my favorite grape and it doesn't show up that often, so its breaks my heart to hear Costco has one but it's not good.

What about the Gigondas?
good

The Kirkland Cotes du Rhone is excellent, as is the Prosecco; both $5-$7.
kirkland gigondas is better
Does Costco has ORGANIC dry red wine?
What is the strongest wine they sell
Try Saldo
Kirkland sauvignon blanc is nothing like Kim Crawford.
Kirkland sauvignon blanc beats KC by a mile
My daddy let me try beer at 4-years-old
Maybe that's why I have a dirty-dry palate😅
Are they professional wine taster
Hi narrative darling ❤️❤️❤️🌺
Kirkland sauv blanc is so acidic, I call it ‘paint stripper’.
No one did a list of good and bad?
yummy
Whoever made this knows nothing about Pinot noir
Is this AI? All the foreign names are pronounced wrong.
