I wasn’t sure if my husband and I would be able to get the full value out of our Costco membership, but I was wrong.
Although not every location sells alcohol, our local Costco does — and I’ve found this bulk retailer has some of the best wine prices.
This comes in handy because, as a certified sommelier, I buy a lot of wine for tastings, events, and even my own collection. And every time I go to Costco, I seem to discover something new, whether it’s a unique variety or an especially great deal.
Here are some of the best sparkling wines I’ve found at Costco so far.
Editor’s Note: Prices and availability may vary.
The Kirkland Signature Prosecco feels like a steal.
Typically around $10 a bottle, Kirkland Signature’s prosecco is one of the most affordable sparkling wines I’ve seen at Costco.
Don’t let the price fool you, though. This wine is from the “Superiore” area of the Italian prosecco region, meaning the winemaking standards are higher.
The Kirkland Signature bottle is on the sweet side, and it’s perfect for brunch mimosas.
Moët sells millions of bottles of its Champagne every year.
Moët & Chandon Champagne is probably the most iconic wine on this list.
As a sommelier, people often ask for a glass of Champagne whenever they want something fizzy. However, true Champagne has to be made in the Champagne region of France — trust me, it actually makes a difference.
The flavors are much more complex and layered than a standard sparkling wine. There’s also something special and luxurious about Champagne.
This bottle is amazing on its own, but also shines with salty snacks such as potato chips, mixed nuts, and popcorn.
Kirkland Signature’s Champagne is also hype-worthy.
You may not expect much from the Kirkland Signature brut Champagne, but it’s hard to find another bottle like it.
It’s true Champagne that I’ve typically seen for about $21 — it’s rare to find a large bottle of the stuff at such a low price.
This variety is a little lighter and fresher than some Champagnes, but if that doesn’t bother you, it’s a total winner.
Roederer Estate makes a stunning $20 sparkler.
If regions don’t matter to you, try this pick from Roederer Estate.
Some big Champagne brands purchase land and make Champagne-style sparkling wines worldwide. In this case, Louis Roederer bought property in Northern California’s Anderson Valley.
Its sparkling brut is a delight and I’ve seen it for $20 to $30 a bottle. In comparison, the brand’s true French Champagne goes for closer to $60 to $80.
I like the Californian Roederer Estate stuff so much that I served it at my own wedding.
If you’ve got Champagne taste on a beer budget, try cava.
Choosing cava is a great way to save money on sparkling wine.
The Spanish sparkler uses the same production method as Champagne but rarely costs more than $20 a bottle. Costco even has one from Blanchard Perez that I’ve seen for under $10.
Cava is generally dry, with little to no sweetness. I love serving it with appetizers and tapas.
I’ve also found solid sparkling rosés at Costco.
The only thing more on trend than sparkling wine is sparkling rosé, and Scharffenberger Cellars has a bottle for around $20 at Costco.
The affordable Californian wine is made from grapes grown in Mendocino County and has a cheerful effervescence.
It pairs well with light dishes such as salads, shrimp cocktail, and smoked salmon dips.
For when only fancy vintage Champagne will do, turn to Henriot.
I wanted to include one special, pricier wine on the list, and that spot went to the $150 bottle of Henriot I found at Costco.
It’s a vintage Champagne, which means all the grapes were harvested in the same year.
Henriot has been around for over 200 years, and it’s one of the few larger brands that’s still independent and family-owned. For me, this Champagne hits all the marks for complexity, flavor, acid, and finish.
