WineScores' Review

Generous, supple, complex.
A first for me, the Bramare Malbec, made by Vina Cobos, comes from the heart of Mendoza, Lujan de Cuyo and is from a site averaging 1000MASL. It was aged in new (24%) and second fill French oak for 18 months.

Wild berries encrusted with charred spices, dark chocolate and espresso, dried herbs and hints of pepper, cedar and tobacco are expressed on the nose. The palate is as classic Lujan as the nose, the entry is supple, it has generosity of red berry with dark mocha, salted licorice and savoury spice flavours. Notable complexity and balance.

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”.
