WineScores' Review

Earthy, savoury, levity.
This aged blend of Tempranillo (80%) with Garnacha (15%) and Mazuelo (5%) was matured 24 months inwhite American oak before bottling and receiving additional years in bottle.
Iodine and preserved cherries, tealeaf, leather and spice aromas lead to a savoury and restrained palate with good levity, which is harnessed by distinct earthy flavours. Fine spice and cocoa trail on the finish.
Pair: roasted meats, pastas in red sauces and hearty soups and stews


 
Recommended Pairings
Rich Meats , Barbeque, Cheese - Semi Hard / Medium , Tomatoes and Tomato Sauces

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”.
