WineScores' Review

Elegant, complex, exceptional.
Located in the Cowichan Valley, BC's newest sub-GI, Unsworth is a boutique winery that was acquired by Barbara Banke and her daughter Julia Jackson (Jackson Family Wines) in the summer of 2020.
This Classic traditional method sparkling (made from Pinot Gris, Pinot Noir and Auxerrois), is a luminous golden yellow it suggests notes of rising bread dough, baked apples, lemon and creamy quince. Excellent complexity and creaminess from age, it has profound character and depth and lengthy finish. Exceptional quality for price.
2015 vintage now available at winery.

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”.
