The Spring 2020 wine sale was canceled due to caution around the corona virus pandemic, but the show will go on for the Fall sale from Wednesday, November 4 through Tuesday, November 10: 20% off any and all wine. Then, sorry, it’s back to GO’s regular exorbitant wine prices.
That said, I exhort and plead with everyone to prioritize corona virus safety over getting that last case of your favorite wine. My understanding is that it is primarily spread through small droplets from the mouth small enough to float and linger in the air for a long time, that are then inhaled through and bind to receptors in the nasal / sinus tissue. The statistic I read from a study in Italy is that “70% of people under 70 have no symptoms,” but are quite capable of spreading it if infected, and symptoms and mortality rise rapidly with age after that. So wear a mask with a good seal around your mouth (to protect others, especially family) and nose (to protect yourself, and also family). The more we get cases down, the sooner we can re-open schools, businesses, etc. But also, don’t panic. If everyone is well masked and talking calmly, your brief encounters in a grocery store are unlikely to spread this virus. For example, no one at the store where I work has gotten sick (fingers crossed).
Sorry to keep going on about this, but here are two popular articles that contain most of the basis for my understanding:

Ok, let’s get back to wine. Please use comments here to write about what you’re scoping out, looking for more of, where you found it, and what you would up getting and liking or not liking. After the sale, the discussion will probably mostly return to the “What’s New?” comments. Thank you!!!
This wine’s unusual bottle and blend intrigued me but also made me a little skeptical. Would it be just hype, or actually good? It is actually good. The wine benefits from a few minutes of air, allowing the fruit to emerge and integrate. Its smoothly blended flavors are of honeysuckle, yellow and white pear, moderate lemon, perhaps yellow melon or peach. The fruit is full and ripe, but not sweet, decently complex, with lively ripe acid and structure that more guiding than restraining. It’s not in a style that I recognize, but it is yummy, and stood up well to various strong-ish flavors. That’s a glass stopper on top, and the bottom of the bottle is rose-shaped. 
I’ve often found Argentine Pinot Noirs good values, and this is no exception. On the first night, it seemed to be pretty good, but never fully open. On the second night, it was excellent.
It’s not that often that GO gets a somewhat older Bordeaux like this one, so I was eager to try it out. I think it’s yummy, but don’t wait to drink it.
After liking the 
This wine immediately showed (what I think of as) a typical Australian style of dark, ripe fruit, quite dry, with stronger acid. It was pretty tasty, but as usual, I thought it took a while in a decanter to fully air, about three hours. Then, the fruit thickened, somewhat submerging the acid and, in addition to the tangy purple plum, boysenberry / black raspberry, red / purple cherry, it developed a pruney finish. On the first night, at least, it was good wine for the price, but nothing I was especially excited about. I’d guess the grapes are mostly Shiraz, with at least some other grape(s), likely Cabernet.
GO has seen some good wines from negociant 
I’ve like the Collavini wines I’ve had before, so I had high hopes for this sparkling wine. The fruit, ripe yellow with hint of green, was smooth and even, not very complex, with the acid and carbonation a little low. I found it okay but unexciting.
