ORIGINAL: JohnWino Another point about Costco wines... I live within 16 miles of three different Costco stores, and each has their own unique personality when it comes to wine. I definitely have a favorite of the three, and I notice they offer some some wines in common, but they don't have identical inventories as would a TotalWine store. Part of it depends on the neighborhood - the Costco I visit is about 2 miles from a Rolls-Royce dealer, and there are a bunch of Hollywood types in the surrounding hills. Another, about 15 miles away is definitely middle class. Guess which one sells Petrus around Christmas and once had a $20,000 bottle of Johny Walker. Store managers know their clientele.
