Covert Farms Family Estate 'Grand Reserve' Syrah, Okanagan Valley, BC

WineScores' Review

Fragrant, generous, delicious.
Tasted bottle No.294 of 600.
This organic and vegan Syrah was harvested from the estate's Coyote Block (planted in 2007-2008) and aged 21 months in French oak.
Dulcet black raspberry, plum jam, mocha, baking spices, licorice and violet aromas appear on the nose. The palate mimics the nose along with expressive purple fruit, and ground white pepper flavours. Slick, supple and seamless it is a generous and jubilant style of Syrah with agreeable freshness that will lure you back sip after sip.

WineDiva.ca was launched prior to WineScores, in February 2004. WineDiva is the alter ego of Daenna Van Mulligen. She wears a cork tiara and is proof that a girl can have her w(h)ine and drink it too! WineDiva.ca is a tongue-in-cheek approach to a very serious passion for all things wine. WineDiva’s goal is to make wine fun, subtly educational & deviously inspirational. Vintage reciting wine snobs need not apply. WineDiva is painting the wine world pink and drinking it all in, and her glass is always (at least) half-full.

WineScores is the more serious follow up to WineDiva.ca. WineScores was born from the demand to see wine writer Daenna Van Mulligen provide scores on her wine reviews. These are numerical scores based on a 100 point scale – an internationally recognized form of rating wines. These numbers provide a snapshot for consumers on how the wine reviewer views the overall quality of the wine. For more information on scoring wine, go to “about”.

We do not share your email address with anyone. Your email address will be used for the WineDiva newsletter You can opt out of receiving the newsletter anytime.
