WineScores' Review

Toasted, spiced, slick.
Grown on the Golden Mile Bench in a low-yielding block of 15-year-old vines, this partial barrel and stainless fermented Chardonnay went through full ML and was lees weekly stirred as it matured for 10 months.
Candied lemon peel and applesauce, golden tropical fruits, vanilla, honey and chalky aromas lead to a fresh but toasted palate. Lemon, spice, nuts and oak flavours dominate; it has a slick texture. Pair: creamy soups and sauces, smoked cheeses, halibut in lemon butter sauce, lobster mac & cheese or grilled chicken


 
Recommended Pairings
Cheese - Semi Hard / Medium , Seafood/Shellfish, White Meat Chicken/Pork

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”.
