WineScores' Review

Opulent, engaging, lengthy.
This 100% Merlot comes from the Bella Vineyard, on the Golden Mile Bench in Oliver. It was released in late November 2016 and has the potential for cellaring 5-10 years.
Expect engaging aromas of pencil shavings and sarsaparilla, black raspberry and black cherries, coconut and brown spices. It is supple and opulent; mocha, cedar and tobacco flavours linger. Excellent balance, nicely knit, and lengthy.
Pair: Grilled steaks, pork roast, lamb, braised veal, red pasta sauce, venison, Camembert or aged cheeses.

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”.
