In
a notice on the company’s website Tuesday, Costco said the
recall affects Kirkland Signature Prosecco Valdobbiadene
purchased between April 25 and August 26. The affected bottles
were sold in Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan,
Minnesota, Missouri, North Dakota, Nebraska, Ohio, South Dakota
and Wisconsin.
Costco said unopened bottles can shatter even when they’re not
being handled or in use. The company said customers should wrap
any unopened bottles in paper towels and place them in a plastic
bag before disposing of them to avoid any risk from shattered
glass.
Costco didn’t respond Tuesday when The Associated Press asked if
there were any reported injuries due to the issue. The company
also didn’t say how many affected bottles were sold or how the
company discovered the problem.
The Associated Press also left a message seeking comment with
Ethica Wines, the Miami-based company that imported the affected
wines from Italy.
Costco is sending letters to impacted customers. The company
said customers will be given a full refund if they bring those
letters to their nearest store.
