WineScores' Review

Woven, dry, racy.
Township 7 was one of the first BC wineries to make a traditional method sparkling wine in 1999. After some sporadic years Seven Stars was reborn in 2015 under the guidance of winemaker Mary McDermott who took over the role in 2014.
Seven Stars is now its own brand and has five sparkling wines in the portfolio, with plans to increase the offering to seven (stands to reason) in coming years. All Seven Stars bubbles are Seven Stars Club exclusives.
Equinox, their premium sparkling rose, is made entirely of Pinot Noir from the organic and biodynamic Sperling Vineyards in Kelowna, it was left en tirage for 29 months to ensure the development of autolytic characters. After riddling it was disgorged and a small amount of our proprietary dosage was added for complexity and depth of flavour
A pale peachy-pink it expresses pomegranate and small red berry aromas woven with rhubarb, grapefruit, wild herbs and faint notes of violet. Unabashedly dry and juicy, the palate boasts a tiny bead with hints of citrus brioche flavours; the finish is racy.

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”.
