Sam's Club has an answer to Costco's Kirkland wines: the Member's Mark line of bubblies, whites, and reds.

The private-label brand, which set about expanding its proverbial wine cellar in 2017, is sold by Walmart's members-only warehouse chain. Member's Mark recently sent us seven bottles of wine to try.

When it came to taste, opinions were divided — often sharply — on virtually every wine we tried. In some cases, one taste tester's favorite pick of the bunch was another's worst wine nightmare.
