Winemaker Notes
Planted by Dante Dusi in 1945 and head-trained and farmed by his family to this day, the Dusi vines produce some of the richest and most distinctive wines in Paso Robles. Immediately expressive on the nose: vivid red fruits, chalky soils, and fresh cherry sap, with a hint of Poblano pepper in the background. Satiating and rich on the palate, with a nice boost from the acidity; Larry wants to drink it with “a dish of wild game in a cooked red berry or cherry sauce.”

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
From vines planted in 1945, the 2017 Zinfandel Dusi Vineyard has a medium to deep ruby color and nose of preserved peach, dried blueberry, violet and lilac with lush ripe fruits at the core and an earthy/herbs hint. Full-bodied, it has great layers of peachy and tricolored fruits in the mouth with lovely perfume. It's framed by firm, pleasantly grippy tannins and good juicy acidity to carry the very long, savory-laced finish. 1,775 cases produced.

International Wine Cellar
The 2017 Zinfandel Dusi Vineyard is powerful, explosive and totally stunning. Perhaps even more importantly, the Dusi conveys all the natural richness that comes so easily in Paso Robles. The 2016 is a wine of breadth and power, with copious dark cherry, chocolate, leather, menthol and spice character. I love the textural breadth here. Range: 92-95

Wine Spectator
Spirited but refined, featuring expressive raspberry and rose petal aromas, with finely focused cherry, stony mineral and pepper flavors that build richness toward polished tannins.
