WineScores' Review

Enthralling, stunning, presidential. Mas La Plana is a 29-hectare vineyard in the heart of Penedes. The first vintage of this wine was 1970 and it is made from Cabernet Sauvignon.
A simply stunning red, which furnishes succulent aromas of smoked black cherries, plumcake, chocolate and warm spices, licorice and vanilla, with tomato leaf and oregano at the core. The palate is supple on the entry and then grows more textural mid-palate to finish. Incredibly well-woven and fresh despite having a few vintages under its belt. It is upstanding and presidential in character, with a lengthy finale.

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”.
