I can't believe the following:

#13 of the top 100

89 Points
Kirkland Signature 2006 Merlot
(Columbia Valley); $9. This is the Costco
house brand, and the new Merlot comes through
with exceptional flavors for the price. It’s lush and
loaded with black cherry and mocha flavors.
Tannins are ripe and smooth, the concentration is
surprising, and there are no holes in this wine; it
plays out smoothly with a very satisfying richness.

From Costco!!!! They are kidding, right? Has anyone tried this wine?
