WineScores' Review

Fresh, zesty, golden.
I'm pleased with this new vintage; this tasty Chenin comes from 40+ year-old vines planted on sandy granite soils in Swartland.
It has a golden shade and notes of toasted baguette, lemon curd, toasted hazelnut, pineapples, straw flowers, caramel and banana peel. The entry is fresh with bracing citrus flavours alongside yellow apples and toast. It has a rounded mouthfeel and zesty finish.
A great food wine for fish, white meats and smoked cheeses.

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”.
