DIANE CARPENTER

Diane’s journey into wine is one that inspires me both as an entrepreneur and a mother. Her passion and knowledge for wine is evident in all her ventures. Ross Knoll’s wines are delicious, and you can taste her dedication in every sip.

Diane is a passionate professional in the wine industry with a strong strategic vision, a deep understanding of the industry, and an incredible work ethic. She's also one of the kindest and most genuine people I know in this business. I had the pleasure of working alongside Diane on the launch of the Somm 3 documentary through incredibly successful premiere events in both New York City and Chicago. She's also been an advocate for my business and has leveraged her extensive network to allow my business to grow. She's a person that takes great pride in all of the ventures that she is involved in, and is truly dedicated to the success of those endeavors. She is someone that I very much enjoy working with and also sharing a great glass of wine with.

I've known Diane for maybe 15 years. She's worked harvest with us - she's a go-getter. She's dynamic, she's bright, vivacious! And when she gets an idea in her head she follows her dreams, and she will sacrifice to get that done. You better not underestimate her because Diane is going to get it done.

I met Diane about 3 years ago at the NYC premiere of Somm 3. Her magnetic personality radiated through the room! She introduced herself and instantly it was like chatting with a long time friend. We parted that night agreeing that we would definitely work together in the future. Fast forward to Summer 2020, Diane reached out letting me know she wanted me to host a film she was producing with Christina to show people the process of how grapes go from the vineyard to the bottle. I was thrilled. Diane’s passion for wine and the entire process is infectious. Working with her was a joy! The genuine joy, passion and dedication Diane brings to wine and everything she does is a gift to everyone that has the pleasure working with her.
