WineScores' Review

Pretty, delicious, silky.
Tollo is a co-operative based in Italy's mountainous central Abruzzo. They make a wide range of wonder approachable wines. all from growers and estate vineyards around the region. The MO was aged 24 months in oak cask and then additional time in bottle. This 2016 is so youthful despite some maturity--a delicious wine, it offers appealing notes of cherries and lilacs, licorice and sweet coffee, leather, charred orange peel and pomegranate. Silky and fresh on the palate is develops into vanilla, sweet spice, cherries and chocolate flavours. It's a pretty wine with good persistence.

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”.
