WineScores' Review

Complex, fleshy, creamy.
Sourced from South Okanagan vineyards, after harvest it was pressed and transferred to French oak barrels for fermentation. After undergoing full malolactic fermentation, it was aged sur-lie for 11 months in 30% new and 70% used French oak, followed by 6 months in stainless-steel before bottling. A substantial Chard, it delivers aromas of lemon curd spread on toast, grilled pineapples and roasted spice, vanilla, honeysuckle, tangerine and a hint of apple turnover. Creamy and ripe with fleshy yellow fruit, toasted spice and vanilla liqueur flavours this is an intense and weighty white with excellent complexity and length.

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”.
