Plungerhead
There is ‘traditional’ and then there are ‘The Other Guys.’ Plungerhead was made by The Other Guys, a division of Don Sebastiani & Sons. Don and his sons Donny and August, third and fourth generations negociants, are recognized for delivering quality, value and doing things differently. Richard Bruno, Director of Winemaking, and his team select small lots of grapes from choice appellations to create balanced, expressive wines and creative blends. Plungerhead makes Zinfandel from selected prime vineyards in California. Plungerhead is one of a number of successful wines in the Don Sebastiani and Sons umbrella who now sell an impressive two million cases a year. Serious stuff!
Don Sebastiani & Sons mantra is to strive to produce quality wine at an approachable price, regardless of the outcome of a particular growing season.
Don Sebastiani states his philosophy: “When my great-grandfather, Samuele, first started in the wine industry more than 100 years ago, he made bulk wines and concentrate. My grandfather, August, focused on wholesale bulk wines and generic retail jug wines, and my father emphasized varietal wines. As fourth-generation Sebastianis, my brother and I want to direct our attention to making appellation-specific wines. Plungerhead is a perfect example.” Don Sebastiani continues to be at the top of his game. Other successful brands of his that we are working with are Talus, Smoking Loon, Aquinas and Hey Mambo.
Not only do the folks at ‘The Other Guys’ marketing make fun wines, but they believe in packaging innovations as well. Plungerhead is stoppered by a revolutionary wine bottle closure that combines the convenience and safety of a screw cap and the celebration of cork. ZORK is, easy to remove by hand, simple to reseal and is completely recyclable. To open the ZORK, one simply pulls the tear tab, unwinds it and removes it. As the ZORK is pulled out, you'll hear it pop. To reseal the bottle, the ZORK is pushed back in. No corkscrew. No crumbling. No cork taint. No worries. The ZORK covered Plungerhead is built for speed and convenience. Brilliant!

The Plungerhead ‘old vine’ Lodi Zinfandel has deep purple color with cocoa, vanilla, clove, and cherry pie aromas. Rich and sappy in the mouth with flavors of boysenberry preserves, cedar, dried raspberry, and coconut spice finishing with great depth from barrel oak aging. This is a Zin that has beautiful depth and richness and unlike many others, has a fine balance of fruit flavor and strength.
