WineScores' Review

Spicy, earthy, balanced
Formerly the Oldfield Series the reserve tier now has a new label look (image shown is of the Syrah, but the label is identical). Made entirely from estate Pinot that was aged 18 months in French oak barrels, this 2014 offers spicy red fruits, forest floor/compost and leather. The wild red fruits, peppery spices and tealeaf flavours are balanced with acid and integrated tannins.
Pair: Grilled wild salmon, roast beef, slow cooked beef brisket or a caramelized onion and wild mushroom pizza.
The new label on this wine is not depicted in the attached photo.

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”.
