WineScores' Review

Supple, concentrated, earthy
Covert Farms is a regeneratively farmed 650-acre, four-generations, family-owned organic farm and winery estate located just north of Oliver.
Tasted bottle 1923 of 2400.
This Cabernet comes from Covert's Coyote Block, planted in 2006 and was aged 20 months in French oak.
Expect sweet floral aromas woven with black berries, graphite, licorice, espresso, toffee, brown spices and vanilla. The entryis supple, the palate is concentrated and textural. Black fruits and dark chocolate. licorice bark, tobacco, leather and earthy flavours dominate. The finish is quite extracted and it has a charred/coffee finish.

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”.
