WineScores' Review

Dry, bracing, persistent.
This bone-dry brut zero (meaning it saw zero dosage) is made entirely from Pinot Noir grown in Bissy sous Cruchaud, just 2.5km north of Buxy. It is a traditional method cremant that spent 18 months on lees prior to bottling.
Expect just a stain of pink and flashes of peaches and violets, small red berries, mountain stream and a hint of charred satsuma orange peel. Dry and leesy it has a chalky sort of texture with bracing acidity carved on by a creamy edge. Flavours of red apple skin and salted dried plums trail on a long stony finish.

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.
