WineScores' Review

Fragrant, silky, expressive.
From 22-year-old vines grown the uppers slopes of CedarCreek's Home Vineyard the Block 4 is a feminine version with ruby fruit, tealeaf, fine spices, botanical, leather and cedar aromas. It is juicy and lifted on the attack but maintains complexity throughout. Silky and elegant overall, with bacon fat flavours on the finish.
Aged 12 months in French oak barrels, 743 six-packs produced, recommended drinking well until 2024--but I think it will cellar longer.

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”.
