This prosecco from Costco is very bubbly, not overly sweet and looks very inviting in a glass! Is it a good alternative to champagne? Does it make good mimosas? Read on to find out!
Prosecco isn’t something I drink a ton of but I never say no to a glass, especially when it’s a holiday or a celebration like a wedding. With New Year’s Eve right around the corner, today I’m reviewing the Costco Kirkland Signature Asolo Prosecco.
Similar products from Costco are the Costco Kirkland Signature Champagne, Kirkland Signature Pinot Grigio, Kirkland Signature Sonoma County Chardonnay, Kirkland Signature Marlborough Sauvinon Blanc, Kirkland Signature Irish Cream, Kirkland Signature Silver Tequila, Kirkland Signature Anejo Tequila, Kirkland Signature Vodka, Kirkland Signature Whiskey and the Kirkland Signature Sangria.
Location in Store
You can find the Costco Prosecco in the Costco liquor store, the item number is 402534.
Taste
This prosecco from Costco is high-quality D.O.C.G prosecco! In case you’re wondering what the D.O.C.G stands for it basically means that this is the highest quality prosecco because the grapes are grown on one of two steep hillsides in Italy and the production (pruning, picking the grapes, etc) is pretty much all done by hand.
The taste is crisp, light, refreshing and fruity. It’s not heavy or sweet and also has a ton of bubbles! I taste notes of apple, pear, peach, caramel and a very slight nutty flavor.
This prosecco looks beautiful in the glass. I find it’s not overly sweet for a Prosecco, which I appreciate. It’s still relatively sweet compared to a dry white wine, but less sweet than most Proseccos.
Cost
I paid $10.79 Canadian for this bottle of prosecco at Costco in 2019. The current price is $11.99 Canadian at my Costco. Although the price has increased I still think it’s a great deal.
Serving Suggestions
I think this is great for any kind of celebratory event, like New Year’s Eve, a wedding, bridal shower, baby shower or party. This prosecco works well in mixed drinks, like mimosas or with a splash of cranberry juice and a shot of raspberry vodka! It can also be enjoyed just by itself.
Scoring
Taste: 7/10
Cost: 9/10
Overall
Give it a try!
I can’t say this is my absolute favorite Costco liquor store item but that may be because I’m just not a huge prosecco fan! I do enjoy a glass or two of it and would buy it if I knew I was hosting a celebration or had guests who enjoy prosecco.

Is it sold here in richmond? Haven’t seen it.
Because of BC liquor laws unfortunately Costco can’t have their liquor stores.
Not true Natalie. You haven’t kept up. We have wines and coolers in many grocery stores like Safeway in BC. Costco West has chosen not to apply for a license to sell.
Is it all BC wines? This article is old but this is what I’ve heard for many years about BC and Costco liquor. https://globalnews.ca/news/992714/costco-wants-to-sell-liquor-in-their-b-c-stores/

Love to buy a few cases on line.
Hi, I signed up to comment on your Kirkland Prosecco review because I’m an expert on the subject. I have drank CASES of this stuff. I have bought cases for myself and cases for my friends that don’t have Costco membership. It’s light, has perfect bubbles and is at it’s most lovely on a summer evening on the patio. Try it with a nice dose of bitters and if you want, a bitters-soaked sugar cube a la champagne cocktail. For a couple years I drank it with amarena cherries (expensive but the Prosecco is not so it averages out) and a spoonful of the syrup. Great for parties, bbq, driveway happy hour. Yes, I have drank it straight up without additions and it’s lovely (perfect size bubbles are important) but it’s more fun and special to pop in some basil and a couple blueberries. This is the best deal in the Costco wine section and it’s a solid one. $6.99 in the Tucson market.
