The savings on these 100 year-old vines are back! Don't miss our XX% discount on the Piedra Creek Winery Benito Dusi Vineyard Zinfandel.
Today we're delighted to bring back this extremely popular deal. With only 227 cases produced it's easy to see why this Zinfandel from the famed, 100-year-old, dry-farmed Benito Dusi Vineyard in Paso Robles has been so popular.
You may recognize the Benito Dusi name from the excellent Ridge Vineyard bottlings from this exclusive vineyard. Thanks to their shared Italian heritage Piedra Creek founder and original winemaker Romeo "Meo" Zuech (a retired rocket scientist) was good friends with Benito Dusi.
In fact, Piedra Creek has been making Zinfandel from this vineyard (planted in 1923) since 1979 and selling a Benito Dusi Zin bottling since 1984.
Considering the heritage and experience here (in both the vines and the people involved), not to mention the 25% new French oak, the normal SRP of $32 for this wine is quite reasonable. But of course, this is an Insider Deal which means you won't pay anywhere near that price!
For the next two days you can get 4 bottles of the 2017 Piedra Creek Benito Dusi Vineyard Zinfandel for just $XX.95 ($XX.99/bottle), a savings of XX%!
Our extremely affordable 2-day summer shipping is a flat $9.99 per order. (You'll never pay more than $9.99 shipping, no matter how many 4-packs you buy in one order.) We ship in heat protection and minimize the transit time to help keep your wine safe in the warmer weather. Orders will still ship 5-10 days after the conclusion of the offer.

From the winery:
Piedra Creek Winery was conceived atop a small knoll in the heart of the MacGregor Vineyard overlooking the beautiful Edna Valley of San Luis Obispo, California.
In 1984 Piedra Creek Winery became the smallest bonded winery in the Edna Valley, if not the state of California, originally producing only a couple hundred cases of estate sourced Chardonnay.
The ultra small batch wines quickly gained notoriety. The grapes used would not come from a selected vineyard, nor from blocks within vineyards, but rather from only the best sections of the 55 acre vineyard. The result: only the best fruit would be used to make the finest wines possible.
Sourced from Benito Dusi in Paso Robles. Aged 9 months in 25% new French oak. Mulberry, violets, green peppercorn.

The 2017 Piedra Creek Benito Dusi Vineyard Zinfandel begins with a wonderful and spicy aroma of black cherry and some brambly berry notes plus touches of mint, cola, cedar and more when it is first popped open. All of those aromas build nicely as it has time to breathe, so take your time with this one, there's lots to discover as you sniff and swirl.
Taking a sip reveals a really tasty, harmonious Zin once again! With similar flavors to the nose, great concentration on the fruit, well-integrated spice, a smooth mouthfeel and good balance this is a lovely example of Zinfandel. Drinking beautifully right now, it also still has plenty of life left.
It ends dry, slightly grippy and very long with smooth and long-lasting berry fruit plus some light oaky notes. It was just as good on day 2. Delicious!
And if you'd like to learn more about the winery there's a fascinating history of Romeo here, who was an aerospace engineer on the Apollo 11 mission before he founded Piedra Creek. As the winery likes to say, "it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to make a great wine...but it certainly doesn't hurt."

Here's what people are saying about our Insider Deals:
"Hey Jon! You do great work. I've bought a bunch of the Insider Deals and probably 80% of the wine I drink comes from them. Great values! "
"Jon, this is a wonderful wine all around. You have become our go-to person for wonderful wines and wine values. Please keep up the excellent job that you're doing! Regards, a very satisfied customer. "
"I opened up our first bottle last weekend and was blown away. "
"Wow!! Just got my shipment. It is absolutely tremendous. "

"You are a man after my own heart. I have always looked for the best and least expensive wine and you just made it easier. Cheers!"
"Hi Jon, well, I did something people have warned about - bought 6 bottles and should have bought 12!"
"Have had nothing but great bottles since I started ordering your recommendations. Thanks so much! "
"We've gotten in on three of the deals and have been VERY happy with the value. I originally was going to do a wine club thing but the insider deal appeals to me much more."
"The shipping on the Insider Deals is another great part of the deal. We recently paid $27 to a winery in California to ship 6 bottles (same packaging as the insider deals)....yikes!"
"Just got my 6 bottles and having my first glass. WHY, WHY didn't I buy a case??!!"
"I really missed the boat by only getting four bottles of this offer last month. Should have bought least at a case."
"My wife and I have really enjoyed getting to know new wines (and better than we used to buy!) Thanks for what you do and providing this service!"
