WineScores' Review

Elegant, concentrated,restraint.
From the Naramata Bench, this clone 95 barrel fermented Chard was then aged on lees in French barrels and puncheons for 10 months (25% new) with partial malolactic fermentation.
This outstanding wine delivers toasted spices and grilled lemon aromas woven with roasted hazelnuts, crushed stone, and yellow apples. It's an elegant Chard showing restraint, balance and deft use of oak. It is slick and creamy and trails flavours of yellow fruit and citrus. Brava.


Pairs Great with Gone Crackers Roasted Shallot & Herb

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”.
