The blend is 59% Merlot, 38% Cabernet Sauvignon, & 3% Cabernet Franc. Smokey, vanilla goodness and the oak shines at the finish. Decent bite but not overdone. Thick black cherry flavors make you look forward to the next sip. I had to set it down so I didn't drink it all prior to this review.
Well done Costco! I'm looking to try more from the Kirkland brand.

I agree with you 100% on this wine :)
I went back last weekend to grab a few more bottles and it was nowhere to be found...the word is out!
Agree is spades. i had such a jones for this wine that I was 'driven" to go back to Costco-- not an activity I relish --really. AND I over-bought. I don't know what made me say "3 cases" to the clerk in the wine dept. I Gulped VERY hard at the digital $394 that appeared at the register, but I bought it anyway--cracked a bottle with some and cheese and now feel grateful my enthusiasm got the better of me. So I will stay home and drink for the next 6 months and love every minute of it. There were 10 cases left in Clackamas Oregon
A most excellent wine! Enjoying it thoroughly tonight...
