Costco had the 2005 Nalys for around $15. I'm having a hard time
imagining ANY CdP at under ten bucks, let alone a 2007 with an 89 in
the Speculator. Anyone been brave enough to try it?

I have had other Costco wines and they are generalkly excelelnt
values. For the record you state a rice of $15 so why the reference to
under $10?

The last time I was at Costco, Basmati RICE was $15.99 for 20 lbs.

I think he's saying the 05 was $15, the 07 is $10.
At that price I'd certainly try one bottle!

I checked with the wine stew at the Kirkland Costco. She says this was
some sort of a close-out being conducted by Costco Online's warehouse.
She recalls having the wine in the store about a year ago, for $19.99.

Unfortunately, I snoozed and loozed. By the time she got back to me,
the stock was sold out. I keep putting the wine into the search engine
but it doesn't come up anymore.

Sorry Joseph, if you made a trip for nothing.

OTOH, there are some interesting offers in the online store.

2004 Giordano Barolo for $14.97
2006 Chateau Quinault L'Enclos $19.97
2006 Condado de Haza $14.97
2004 Chateau Branas Grand Poujeaux $19.97
2006 Seguinot-Bordet Grand Cru Chablis $29.97

But there's catch here, too. The Branas can only be shipped to
Washington State addresses, the others to California, New Mexico and
Oregon addresses.

Sheesh....isn't Prohibition over yet?

Not for nothing, but certainly nothing as spectacular as a $10 CdP!
They do have some good values. El Coto Rioja at $8.99 very nice
everyday wine
Trevor Jones Virgin Chard at $12.50another very nice wine for a good
price.

Some good CA Syrah at 15 as well.
