WineScores' Review

Slick, fresh, creamy.
This handpicked estate Chardy was fermented in tank (25%) and oak (75%); it went through partial mololactic fermentation and was aged in assorted oak barrels for 10 months.
Aromas of honeycomb and toasted nuts, yellow apples and grilled lemon and acacia blossoms. It has a creamy palate with toasted undertones. Concentrated and slick you can expect stone fruits, nuts and spice flavours.
Second review: November 2024
Hazelnut biscuit, lemon meringue, honey, toasted spices, yellow apple, vanilla and acacia aromas appear on the nose. In the mouth it is fresh and nutty with apple turnover and toasted spice flavours; there is a slight salinity on the finish with a hint of oak. Overall a bright, not flashy Chardonnay.

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”.
