WineScores' Review

Here's what I can tell you about Verve according to their website: they are a negociant project (under the name of Origin Winery) focused on quality, value and expressing the regionalism of the Okanagan Valley. They purchase wines from Okanagan wineries and blend them. They have relationships with wineries, grape-growers, restaurants and retailers; there is no tasting room, the wines can be found in Save-On Foods and in the Donnally Group pubs and lounges.
This blend of Cab and Merlot also includes some Cab Franc, Syrah, Malbec and Petit Verdot and suggests wild red fruit aromas, chalk and tealeaf. It is a simple and light-medium bodied with diluted fruit flavours layered with tobacco and faint spice; the finish is smooth.
Price not available.

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”.
