WineScores' Review

Expressive, weighty, peachy.
Township 7's recent portfolio expansion of traditional method sparklers has solidified their standing as one of Canada's top in that genre.
The Vega is made entirely of estate grow Viognier, from T7's Fool's Gold Vineyard in Oliver.
The grapes were picked with high natural acidity and left “en tirage” for 12 months to ensure the that the aromatic character of the variety was maintained and that a small amount of autolytic character was present. After riddling the wine was disgorged and a proprietary dosage was added for varietal character and aroma.
Warm peach brioche, lime and honey roasted nut aromas lead to a weighty palate with good fruit expression. Honey and peach atop citrus flavours are revealed. A nice fizzy addition, but lacking the precision and finessef their Polaris and Equinox.
Wine Club Exclusive.

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”.
