WineScores' Review


From the rocky, calcium rich soils of the Black Sage Bench region in the Southern Okanagan Valley, this delicious Stoneboat Pinot Gris is 80% tank fermented and 20% fermented in neutral oak barrels.
A delicious white with fantastic concentration. On the nose it presents spiced creamed pears, honey and white grapefruit and white blossoms atop classic Gris undertones of earth and mushroom. The palate is tangy and leads with flavours of pear, nectarine and citrus. The finish is zesty and lengthy.
Pair this wine with chicken in mushroom sauce, mushrrom risotto, chicken salad or salmon.

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”.
