Up + Adam with Adam Montiel

Zin It to Win It: Old Vines & New Chapters Celebrating 100 Years of Dusi Family Farming
In this episode of Up+Adam, we dive deep into the rich legacy of the Dusi family with Janell Dusi, the dynamic winemaker behind J Dusi Wines, and her brother, vineyard manager Matt Dusi. Celebrating 100 years of farming in Paso Robles this year, the Dusi siblings share captivating stories from their family's history, the evolution of their winemaking practices, and the unique dynamics that come with running a family-owned winery.
From the inspiration behind their commemorative 'Cent'Anni' Zinfandel to the challenges and rewards of maintaining sustainable farming practices, Janell and Matt offer an intimate look into their world. Plus, we uncover some lighthearted family secrets, like the cardinal sins in the Dusi household and who might be the worst at potlucks. Whether you're a wine enthusiast or just love a good family story, this episode is packed with insights and laughter.
