WineScores' Review

Elegant, zesty, classic
Township 7 was one of the first BC wineries to make a traditional method sparkling wine in 1999. After some sporadic years Seven Stars was reborn in 2015 under the guidance of winemaker Mary McDermott who took over the role in 2014.
Seven Stars is now its own brand and has five sparkling wines in the portfolio, with plans to increase the offering to seven (stands to reason) in the future.
All Seven Stars bubbles are Seven Stars Club exclusives with the exception of Polaris and Rigel.
Aurora is a blanc de noir made entirely of Pommard clone 115 Pinot Noir grown in the Okanagan Falls sub-GI form a the Stoneridge Vineyard and it was left en tirage for 30 months.
Expect classic notes of toasted lemon pastries, yellow apples, lemon and wild red berries. It's a fresh and racy wine with creamy mouthfeel and long, elegant and tangy finish. Beautifully balanced and chic.

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”.
