WineScores' Review

Structure, youthful, concentrated.
From one of the oldest regions of Mendoza, Cruz de Piedra, this powerful Malbec comes from Mascota's finest vineyard, La Mascota.
Black cherry, black raspberry, dark cocoa and black licorice aromas are layered with roasted herbs, cedar, dried rose petals and espresso. It is a slick wine with salty undertones defined by wild berries, dark chocolate, coffee, dried herbs and spice flavours. Notable concentration and structure here, some time will soften the tannins.


Pairs great with Gone Crackers Canadian Chedder & Chive

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”.
