WineScores' Review

Bright, oaky, toasted.
This pale onion-skin blush is made from estate Pinot Noir and Gamay grown in the new sub-GI of Okanagan Falls (designated last year) where Stag's Hollow is located. Aromas of toasted spices, peach stone, charred orange peel, cedar, vanilla and spring blossoms are deeply underscored by oaky notes. Oak plays a dominant role on the palate and is distracting, but the acid is bright and the finish mouthwatering.
Recommended with: white meats, cream sauces, mushroom dishes, popcorn, corn chowder, crab, fish with lemon cream sauce, lobster with butter.


 
Recommended Pairings
Spicy Food, Patio Sippers, Seafood/Fish, White Meat Chicken/Pork, French Food

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”.
