Nice wine find at Costco

Today I went in search of a Riesling at my local Costco (Chantilly VA). I saw couple of nice wines but they were more expensive than I wanted to spend.

Then I saw one more: an F.W. Langguth Erben Auslese (Rhinehessen) 2007 for $7.99. Seems like a misprint, no? the information on the label points to a wine of some quality. So I did some research and it's indeed a very respectable wine. Given the popularity of sweet wines these days, the bottles will probably gather dust. But I'll be picking up a few more. Drink some now, save some for later.

Considering what $7.99 often buys you in the wine aisle, I commend Costco for offering a classy wine at such a price.
