Louis XVI CostCo’s Last Chance?
Sunday, May 6th, 2007Louis XVI (seize – geddit?) CostCo’s last chance. A number of variable experiences with wine from CostCo have led me to wonder whether to bring down the guillotine (gee-yo-teen) on their wine department.
So tasting this 2004 Louis Jadot Cotes de Beaune-Villages at £6.79 plus VAT was it going to be the best of times or the worst of times? Was I going to be the Sydney Carton of wine, or the Charles Darnay?
CostCo is known for high quality products at rock bottom prices and this works well for consumer electronics, Red Bull, or San Pellegrino for example. But wine buyers need a bit more nous than getting the lowest possible price.
Stumble It!
