WineScores' Review

Fragrant, juicy, zesty.
Blasted Church was established in Okanagan falls 20 years ago. It was named for a mining camp church which was torn down (with the help of explosives) and rehomed to the Falls in 1929. The labels tell many colourful stories.
This classic Bordelais white blend was fermented and aged in a combination of stainless steel vats (70%) and French oak barrels (30%). It's very fragrant and fruity; think gooseberry and peach, honey and green apples, spring flowers and a mix of lime and pomelo. It has a juicy palate and is off-dry and quaffable. It has a creamy edge and a zesty fresh finish.
Pair: shellfish, roast chicken, fresh cheeses or cold noodle salads with some spice.

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”.
