WineScores' Review

Zesty, creamy, slick.
This wine was naturally fermented and then aged concrete tanks for 8 months. Made from Pinot Gris from Haywire's organic Switchback vineyard, which was whole cluster pressed into large format concrete tanks for fermentation using natural yeast. It was then aged for six months on lees. Smoked lemons and hints of bread dough, peach stone, clay and starfruit aromas lead to a palate that is both zesty and creamy. It's slick and racy with restrained fruit and a lemon-pepper flavoured finish.
New look, new label.

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”.
