2021 Esteban Martin


 Great wine for bargain price! Powerful, with multiple berries and some flower hint in the nose and taste. No sugar. If you want full bodied wine for cheap, buy it at Costco.

Was great with sous vide lamb.

 Very good Rosé. Honey and spices with just a bit of citrus.

Was great with baked walleye.

2021 Broquel Malbec


 This one is sold under Kirkland brand. Good wine overall. Not as refined as 2019, but still has tones of multiple berries. Needs some time in the open bottle for the best taste. Will buy again.

Was good with Sous-vide tuna.

2022 Buckshot Vineyard Rosé


 Tried red wined from Washington state before, they were good. This one is drinkable. Has a nose of a bouquet of cheap flowers and a taste of cheap caramel. Such wines are sold in Europe for €2.5 a bottle (at best) or €3 a liter. Will not buy again.

Sometimes Costco disappoints...
