I'll just leave this here --- Bota Box Pinot Noir for the win.


Some people would buy $50.00 bottles of Coke because they think the more you pay the better the Coke.

Trust me. Buy a 3L box of Kirkland Cab and give it a shot.

I drizzle that shit out in a carafe and serve it to people who rave about it
Box has been purchased. Along with 2 bottles of Jordan to use as comparison. The gf and I will be doing a taste test later today

The BEST wine you'll ever drink is whatever wine you like.

Regardless of country of origin, vintage, name, price, or packaging.

I like Jordan too, but at $50/bottle, it's a little pricey for me.

Does the Kirkland stuff sell at any places other than Costco? There are no Costcos near me. The closest one is about a half hour away.

Thanks!

not that i know of, kirkland is Costco's in-house brand, can only get it on their website (where they don't sell booze), or in the warehouse (where they do sell booze at certain locations). There are only 2 warehouses in NJ that have a liquor license to sell in the warehouse itself, and not at an attached Western Beverages or similar liquor store.

that being said, 30 minutes away isn't bad, it's not like you're going there every week.

No, not every week for booze. But I currently belong to BJ's, which is less than 10 minutes from my house. I have wanted to switch to Costco, because I have heard it is better, but it is kind of far to drive every week. I basically go to BJ's once per week.

The one in Edison NJ supposedly sells booze. It looks like it is also about a half hour from here.

And now that they have USDA PRIME for some cuts, it's even better, no more CHOICE.

I'd settle for BJs once a week.

Seriously, Kirkland brands are often put up against bigger national brands on our local news and win nearly every time.
