WineScores' Review

Yalumba, Australia's Oldest Family run winery turned 175 on November 17, 2024.
One of their Rare & Fine Collection wines is The Signature. which has been made since 1962 in the best vintages. This 2014 is a re-release from the museum collection; it was originally released in 2018.
Each vintage is dedicated to someone, usually a long standing employee. The 2014 is dedicated to Chris Greening, long time employee.
Cedar, mulberry, red current, vanilla and dried strawberry aromas appear on the nose along with dried purple flowers. The palate shows maturity, dried cherry and plums, pipe tobacco, licorice and cigar flavours dominate. It has a plush grape-y character and fine chalky tannins.

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”.
