A Family Tradition with a New Perspective
At J Dusi Wines, we are proud to continue a family tradition of winemaking that dates back to the early 1920s. Our story began with Sylvester and Caterina Dusi, Italian immigrants who settled in Paso Robles and pioneered the region's wine industry. Their legacy of producing high-quality wines has been passed down through generations, and today, our winemaker and owner, Janell Dusi, carries on this tradition with a new perspective.
Our Winemaking Philosophy
Our approach to winemaking is deeply rooted in our family's history and heritage. We believe that winemaking is a delicate balance of art and science. Each step of the process, from vineyard management to fermentation, is carefully monitored to ensure that our wines meet the highest standards of quality. Our commitment to sustainability is reflected in our farming practices, which have been honed over generations.
Our Vineyards
Our vineyards are a testament to our family's long history of wine production in Paso Robles. We cultivate a range of varietals, including Grenache, Mourvedre, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Clairette Blanche, as well as Classic Zinfandel and Petite Sirah. Our passion for Zinfandel is evident in the generations-old vines that thrive in our vineyards. The Dusi Family's true passion is Zinfandel, and we're proud to continue this tradition.
