WineScores' Review

Dry, buoyant, racy.
The depth of colour of Clos du Soleil's has dimmed in the last couple vintages but is once again made entirely of Malbec. A pale dusty pink it delivers delightful aromas of orange blossoms and cranberry, watermelon, cantaloupe and vague hints of tealeaf. Lively, almost spritzy, in the mouth it provides tangy red berries and orange peel flavours. Bone dry and racy, slick and superbly structured; once again it's an outstanding bottle in the rose category.
Pair: Picnic fare, spicy dishes, grilled sausage, cheese and tapas platters, among so much more.

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”.
