WineScores' Review


Juicy, expressive, generous.
In reward for their hard work, this label was created by Black Hills as a thank you to their cellar hands - it is something unique they create on their own.
The 2013 is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Syrah and Cabernet Franc. Despite its less than serious label it is a considerable wine. High-toned red fruits atop wild brairy berries, savoury brown spice and pepper, bittersweet cocoa and an earthy core with hints of tobacco. The palate is more expressive with generous fruit and supple weight. A long juicy finish shows pipe tobacco and vanillin oak.

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”.
