WineScores' Review

Potent, generous, polished.
This potent Syrah comes from LFNG's estate Perfect Hedge vineyard in Osoyoos. It was co-fermented with 3% Viognier (a nod to Northern Rhone Valley's versions) then aged 20 months in 35% new and 18% puncheons.
Chocolate dipped cherries, espresso, black raspberry, vanilla, violets, cardamom and star anise aromas lead to an equally plush and generous palate. Purple fruits, licorice, pipe tobacco, espresso and rich chocolaty flavours are underscored by pepper. It's a lengthy and warm wine with sweet, polished tannins.
15.4% ABV.

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”.
