WineScores' Review

Intensity, impressive, slick.
Taylor Fladgate selects Ports produced in the eastern areas of the Douro Valley and matures them in seasoned oak casks in their cellars in Vila Nova de Gaia.
Notes of cedar and dried pineapple, quince jelly and toasted hazelnuts lead to a palate with impressive weight and power. Good acidity here and a slick weight on the tongue along with flavours of dried cherry and spiced nuts. Good intensity and muscle here, and the finish is ongoing.

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”.
