Palate
This unique red wine blend is a true purple burgundy in color. Wafts of espresso and a bit of menthol on the nose. Vine ripened summer raspberries spill over the palate. Its finish is reminiscent of Grandma’s cedar chest, clove and holiday spice.
Winemaking
Janell Dusi is the proprietor and winemaker, specializing in Zinfandel. She is a 4th generation farmer who is the first of the family to go beyond farming to produce wines from the Dusi Vineyards. She honors her heritage by winemaking in the most native form; handpicking, hand sorting and stomping her wines by foot. Her signature style is continued with non-invasive wine handling and gentle barrel aging. A combination of new French and American oak, juvenile barrels are rounded out with neutral barrels to create wines that respect and reveal the natural varietal characteristics of Zinfandel.
