WineScores' Review

Zesty, persistence, lemony.
It's been a few years since I'd tasted the Stina wines of Croatia; some sharp new labels have really modernized their look, but they are terribly hard to read. Nonetheless, this wine is made from the Dalmatian Vugava grape which is grown on the island of Brac in the Adriatic, home to Stina.
Ripe yellow fruit and honey, pine, beeswax and lemon balm aromas lead to a creamy palate with lemon curd and candle wax. It's zesty and shows notable complexity and persistence, focus and precision.

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.
