WineScores' Review

Fresh, pretty, approachable.
Caves de Rauzan represents more than 3500 hectares of vines in the heart of Bordeaux comprised of nearly 340 cooperative members. The winery produces a large volume of AOC wines: Bordeaux Supeerieur, Bordeaux (white, rose and red), Entre-Deux-Mers and Cremant de Bordeaux.
A blend of 50.50 Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon, Fleur is a pretty wine with notes of honeysuckle and gooseberry, mango, lychee and melon. The palate is an echo of the nose; floral and fruity flavours are underscored by snappy lime and green apples. Fresh, elegant and also approachable--it's a perfect wine for fish, salads and fresh cheeses.
Second review: June 2023 A pale yellow/green hue with notes of mineral and lemon, star fruits and crunchy yellow apples, grass clippings straw and gooseberry. The palate is an echo of the nose; crisp and fresh and approachable.

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”.
