Discover the Hidden Gem: Costco’s Sancerre – A Rare French Wine Bargain Under $20!

North Carolina content creator Sarah Zeiler has recently discovered an impressive find for wine lovers at Costco—an affordable Sancerre that is a rarity for its quality and price. Sancerre, a well-known French white wine made from Sauvignon Blanc grapes in the Loire Valley, typically commands high prices ranging from $25 to $50. This is due to its limited supply and high demand.

During a summer trip to Costco, Zeiler came across the Ronsard La Pleiade Sancerre, which she initially purchased for under $15, although prices can vary by location—some Costco stores list it closer to $20.79, with the average retail for this bottle hovering around $29 elsewhere.

In her review shared on social media, Zeiler emphasizes the crisp, citrusy flavor profile of the wine, articulating her delight with phrases like “It’s so good” and complimenting its light, dry character, making it an excellent pairing for food. The presence of vibrant, acidic notes adds to its appeal.

With this discovery, Zeiler expresses hope that Costco continues to expand its selection of affordable French wines. Such finds contribute to making enjoyable and quality wines accessible to everyone, especially those looking for great flavor without the hefty price tag typically associated with French wines.
