GO Picks: Week of 8.17.09

I must be in a wine state of mind because wine is what I’ve got for this week’s Grocery Outlet Bargain Market.

You do know I try all my own GO picks, right? I buy them, I try them.

Well, this wine, doghouse, a 2005 California Zinfandel, is one I liked so much I should go back and buy a case before it’s bought up, much like the last batch of Chalk Hill Chardonnay. Sigh.

Anyway, I loved this doghouse Zin. The GO price was $3.99, but doghouse Zin sells for at least $12.99 elsewhere.

Oh, and I also liked the Santino Zinfandel, which sells for $3.99 at the GO and $16.99 elsewhere.

Must GO now. Save some wine for me.
