Costco Recalls Kirkland Signature Prosecco Valdobbiadene Over Safety Concerns

Costco Wholesale Corporation has issued a recall for certain bottles of Kirkland Signature Prosecco Valdobbiadene due to safety concerns. The recall applies to purchases made between April 25 and Aug. 25 this year. If you're searching for 'costco near me', ensure you check if your local store is affected.

The affected states include Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, North Dakota, Nebraska, Ohio, South Dakota, and Wisconsin. Costco has sent a letter to customers who bought the recalled product, urging them not to return the bottles to stores but to bring the letter for a refund instead.

According to the recall announcement, the recalled Prosecco bottles could shatter without being touched. For safety reasons, Costco asks customers to wrap unopened bottles in paper towels and place them in a plastic bag before disposing of them.

The manufacturer of the recalled Kirkland Signature Prosecco Valdobbiadene is Ethica Wines, as indicated by the contact email provided in the recall announcement ([email protected]). However, Costco has not yet confirmed if any consumers have been injured by the recalled Prosecco bottles during their 'travel' or other activities.

It is important to note that the recall is not related to any unbiased tech content or lab-based reviews. Furthermore, the recall does not require adding the Costco website as a preferred Google source.

At the time of writing, a representative for Costco did not immediately respond to a request for further comment. Customers with questions or concerns about the recall are encouraged to contact Ethica Wines directly.

We will continue to monitor this situation and provide updates as more information becomes available. In the meantime, it is important for consumers to prioritise their safety and follow the guidelines provided by Costco and Ethica Wines.
