WineScores' Review

Simple, dry, tart.
Rascallion is a new negociant, established in 2018, in Stellenbosch. They source wines from Stellenbosch, the Swartland, Darling, Roberston and Piekenierskloof to make approachable, fun and unpretentious products.
With Love From The Cape is one of those collections, it has five wines in total including this rose made entirely from Pinotage.
A light salmon-pink it suggests wildflowers, wild strawberry, orange peel, cedar and fine peppery spice aromas. It is dry and earthy suggesting tart red berries, band-aid, spice and dusty citrus flavours. The finish is pithy and overall it has good bones.

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”.
