WineScores' Review

Ripe, unctuous, supple.
A blend of Rhone varieties Roussanne with Marsanne, this southern France blend was co-fermented and lees stirred, went through partial malolactic fermentation and a portion was aged four months French oak.
Pine and warm apples, almond and peaches, quince paste, buttered rum, vanilla and old spice aromas lead to a palate that echoes the nose. Similar buttered run, grilled peach and warm quince paste with vanilla appear on the palate. IT has a boozy, supple weight and finishes with bourbon barrel and oak spice flavours.


 
Recommended Pairings
Seafood/Fish, White Meat Chicken/Pork, Cheese - Soft/Creamy

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”.

We do not share your email address with anyone. Your email address will be used for the WineDiva newsletter You can opt out of receiving the newsletter anytime.
