Named for the golden hills of the Santa Lucia Mountain Range that frames our family-owned San Bernabe Vineyard in Monterey, Diora wines are inspired from “d’Or,” the French phrase meaning “golden” and bestowed on beautiful, sun-filled regions. No effort has been spared along Diora’s 30-year journey from vineyard-to-bottle. The result is an expressive RosĂ© wine overflowing with flavor, depth and personality and a devotion to indulgence.

WINEMAKER'S TASTING NOTE
Presenting the 2021 vintage of Diora La Belle FĂȘte RosĂ© of Pinot Noir, Estate Grown from our San Bernabe Vineyard in Monterey. This RosĂ© has a beautiful, pale pink hue. The indulgent style begins with aromas of fresh, ripe strawberries and notes of red grapefruit and honeydew melon that are inviting and alluring. The aromas are carried through on the palate and complemented by hints of mandarin and watermelon with vibrant acidity and an elegant medium weight mouthfeel showcasing the quality of the fruit from our Estate Vineyard. La Belle FĂȘte means the beautiful party in French, and we are sure this RosĂ© adds a special touch to any festive occasion. Our RosĂ© wine will pair beautifully with salads, light pasta and rice dishes, especially with seafood, raw and lightly cooked shellfish and grilled fish. Enjoy alongside balanced dishes with depth of flavor such as Salade Niçoise, pappardelle with pork ragĂč or pan seared salmon with a lemon butter sauce and sautĂ©ed greens.
