We had a New England Clambake with all the fix'ins and open a vertical of the TJ Dusi Zin's as follows: 2000, 2001, and 2002. As you know, Dusi fruit is big and juicy. However, time has changed these bottles from when I first tried them shortly after release. With time, the wine has more of a port-like quaility, and is chewy. As the wine opened, it became much more approachable and drinkable but ... it wasn't the Dusi fruit I love. In short, I have moved my TJ Zin's from the cellaring pile to the drink pile. They are too good to let time muddy the wine. I have been cellaring the TJ Dusi Zin’s for quite a while.
