Smooth and almost creamy, this simple sipper has cherries and chocolate in abundance. The flavors of vanilla and tobacco are also prominent. — (5/1/2012) —86

Another fine value from Kirkland, the Costco house brand. Vineyard sources are first rate, mostly Wahluke Slope, and the wine has exceptional grip, depth and structure for Merlot at this price point. Cassis, dark plum, black cherry, licorice, espresso and smoke are woven together nicely. Tannins are lush, substantial and quite ripe; they wrap up the wine with a blanket of smoke and tar. A great steak wine.——P.G.(9/1/2010)—— 90

This is the Costco house brand, and the new Merlot comes through with exceptional flavors for the price. It’s lush and loaded with black cherry and mocha flavors. Tannins are ripe and smooth, the concentration is surprising, and there are no holes in this wine; it plays out smoothly with a very satisfying richness.——P.G.(8/1/2009)—— 89
