WineScores' Review

Savoury, tangy, textural.
Cabernet Franc and Tinhorn Creek, invariably intertwined.
Always a solid; this vintage doles out tangy red berries, brown spices, roasted bell peppers, fleur de sel and smoked meat aromas. The palate is sweet, smoky and savory as well; wild berries, bittersweet cocoa and spice flavours dominate. It also has great levity and fine textural tannins with a slick finish.
Pair: Grilled sausages or grilled portobello mushrooms with blue cheese, burgers or rich tomato ragu pasta.


Pairs great with Gone Crackers Blue Cheese & Cracked Pepper

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”.
