looked up Costco (which sell a huge number of CA wines - even here on
the east coast where I live in Virginia - to see if they sell in the
U.K. One place:

United Kingdom Region
213 Hartspring Lane
Watford, Hertfordshire
England, UK WD2 8JS

Regarding the Costco prices of CA wine, I often wonder how 'any goods'
can be the same with Costco regardless whether it is in a high
economy area, vs. a low economy area here in the U.S.

It would be interesting to know whether the cost of the same CA wine
is the same in U.K.
