2007 Reserve de la Chevre Noire Bourgogne Blanc

[hotwine]

KC's description certainly fits our local environment. A couple of weeks ago, I emailed a couple of friends about a QPR I'd found that was sure to interest them; one of the guys printed out my email and took it with him to Costco, following my directions to the specific display exactly.... and no find. The wine guy happened to be present, so he was shown the email and disclaimed any knowledge of that wine. Turns out my friend was visiting a different Costco, one that's 15 miles from me and serves a more affluent clientele than the one I visit that's only five miles from me. So now, when I send him a heads up, I specify the store to visit.

A serious wine-shopper at Costco needs to visit all of the stores in the area at least once each week. And be sure to ask about re-stocking days, so as not to arrive the day after the good stuff has sold out.
