WineScores' Review

Plush, charming, delicious.
This southern Italian red varietal is one of Southern Italy's most important grapes; it is also the father of California's stalwart, Zinfandel.
It front-loads cherry jam and sweet plummy aromas, pipe tobacco and licorice with plenty of vanilla. The palate is plush with generous but juicy fruit. It is charming and expressive and delicious from start to finish.
Pair: stuffed eggplant, pizza, hard cheeses, burgers or your favourite hearty pasta.


Pairs great with Gone Crackers Parmesan & Rosemary

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”.
