This Wine is a Doozy

Let me set the stage....this spring, Amy visited Chicago and really enjoyed a J. Dusi zinfandel at a wine bar. Like a good investigator, she went on-line and found Ms. Jonelle Dusi's winery in Paso Robles, CA. Turned out, Ms. Dusi had just started making her own wine even though for years prior, the grapes from her dad's vineyard were sold to create delicious zins. Wineries like Tobin James, Turley and Four Vines all have produced and marketed a Dusi Zin. And they were all yummy. Yes, we had all of them.

During our recent trip to Paso Robles, we were blessed by the wine gods to come upon two bottles of J.Dusi Zin at a lovely wine shop, 15 Degrees C Wine Shop and Bar in Templeton, CA. Tonight, we opened one of those bottles and it was a doozy!!!

Fruit forward, jammy, and smooth, this zin was delicious. Judging from the 3/4 bottle that the two of us sucked down with our lasagna and turkey meatloaf dinners, it was a winner.

With one more bottle to go, we will be reaching out to Jonelle Dusi and seeing how we can buy more of her new wines!
