7 Kirkland Wines Nobody Has Ranked (The Imports)
Costco quietly changed who makes one of its most expensive Kirkland Signature wines — and the wine inside the bottle changed with it. Same gold label. Same price. Different winery. Nobody was told.
Our first Kirkland ranking covered the American reds. This time we're going after the imports: the French, the Italian and the Spanish bottles nobody has ranked. And we're not ranking them on taste. We're ranking them on something that matters more — how much you can trust the label to mean the same thing next year.
Because a Kirkland import isn't a wine. It's a contract. And contracts get renewed with different people.
Inside: the Brunello whose production jumped from fourteen thousand bottles to a hundred and twenty thousand under a new producer. The Chianti that swapped hands and got better without telling anyone. The Bordeaux with no château behind it at all — just a merchant house with three hundred and fifty partner properties, which also bottles a Trader Joe's label. The Barolo whose maker is hidden on a neck band. And the one bottle where Costco finally stopped hiding and printed the winemaker's name straight onto the cork.
Prices vary by warehouse and region. Producers can change between vintages — that's rather the point of this video.
