The story behind it
Diora is named after the golden hills of the Santa Lucia Mountain Range, inspired by 'or', the French word for gold. Winemaker James Ewart crafts these wines with a focus on estate-grown fruit from Monterey, capturing the unique maritime terroir of the region.
Harvested from the windswept San Bernabe Vineyard in Monterey, this wine is shaped by the cool afternoon breezes of Monterey Bay. The grapes undergo fermentation and aging in French and American oak barrels to develop its hallmark creamy complexity.
From Monterey, California, USA
