From Don Sebastiani, Plungerhead 2020 is produced from Old Vines Zinfandel and Cabernet Sauvignon sourced from the Lodi wine region. Over the last 20 years, Lodi has been recognized for its award-winning wines and high-quality grapes, with this example deep dark violet in the glass and fragrant with dark plum, chocolate, brambleberry, baking spices with a bright a long red berry finish. Totally overdelivers at $23.

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.
