Palate

Inky in color this intense Petite Sirah opens with bright blueberry that leads into a mid palate of caramel and cocoa nib. Its broad tannins have hints of black tea for a delightfully lengthy finish.

Harvest

This Petite Sirah is grown in the Paso Robles AVA and reflect the classic characteristics of Paso wines known to be powered by fruit and structure. This wine is farmed by four generations of the Dusi Family.

Winemaking

Janell Dusi is the proprietor and winemaker, specializing in Zinfandel and red wine blends. 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.
