WINE DESCRIPTION
Diora Three Crowns Single Vineyard Red is dry red wine made from the Syrah grape. The wine is made by Diora, an estate named after the color of the Santa Lucia Mountains, visible from the vineyard, in the sunshine. All of the fruit comes from the St Bernabe Vineyard and picked at different stages based on clonal differences. The oak regime is a mix of French and American of which one third is new. This is a ripe and complete Syrah and an goof alternative for drinkers of Barossa Shiraz seeking a more elegant style.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
On the nose, Diora Three Crowns offers a captivating bouquet of ripe blackberries, dark cherries, and hints of licorice.The palate is rich and velvety, with luscious flavors of plums and prunes. The wine displays a perfect balance between fruitiness and velvety tannins, creating a harmonious and elegant profile. The finish is logn and complex with notes of vanilla and coconut from maturation in oak of mixed origin. Diora Three Crowns Single Vineyard Red is a wine that can be enjoyed now, but also has the potential for further aging over a decade. It pairs beautifully with grilled meats, hearty stews, and aged cheeses. The wine's complexity and depth make it a standout choice for special occasions or for those seeking a truly memorable wine experience.

ORIGINS
Winery: Diora
Region: Central Coast California
The Central Coast of California is a wine lover's paradise, boasting a wide variety of climates, soils, and grape varieties. Located between San Francisco and Los Angeles, the Central Coast spans from Monterey County in the north to Santa Barbara County in the south. With its diverse topography and Mediterranean climate, the Central Coast is home to some of the most renowned wineries in the United States.
The Central Coast has a long and storied history of winemaking, dating back to the mid-1800s. The first vineyards were planted in the Santa Clara Valley, and by the late 1800s, the region was producing some of the finest wines in the country. The region's reputation for quality wines was further solidified in the early 1989, when the Santa Clara Valley was declared among the first American Viticultural Area (AVA) in the United States.CUSTOMER RATING
