Most of our wines are of pretty limited production, often because the wineries have such low yields that are required to bolster the fruit quality. We've never seen the wines we order at Costco (where we are members).
Costco in the S.F. Bay Area (Redwood City) was selling single vineyard Achaval Ferrer Malbecs for $85 a bottle 2 weeks ago.
