I saw 2011 Crasto Superior at Costco for $18.99. First time for Crasto in an MA Costco. Also had 2012 Altano for $8.99

That is a fantastic young DOC wine and at under $20 ... a screaming deal considering the superb vintage it is from. I've had it only a few times, early on in cask and twice since ... really solid. Moses you should load up!

I bought one, along with an Altano and 2013 Joao Portugal Ramos VV "Loureiro" for $7.99.

I'll go back to pick up a case or two soon. Looks to be a regular product at this Costco. They were selling VdM Meandro @ $20 for a few years, but have moved on to the Crasto.

As an aside. The 2012 Altano is one of their better recent vintages. Will stock up on that one too. I think I already have a case 2012 off site...

That's a good price on the Meandro. I'll check out my Costco this weekend. Hopefully they have some.
