WineScores' Review

Pretty, expressive, mouthwatering.
Riesling has always been a passion for Intrigue Wines' winemaker Roger Wong and it shows.
The Focus doles out juicy notes of honeysuckle and candied lime, dried peaches and wet stone. The palate is just as pretty as the nose, it's off-dry and pristine with expressive citrus peel and crunchy crab apple flavours. A mouthwatering wine with nice precision and weight.
A wine for pork or turkey, coconut curry, lemon aioli or sushi.



 
Recommended Pairings

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.
