WineScores' Review

Slick, concentrated, singular.
Made by the Valpolicella-based Aldegheri, this white made from Garganega, Trebbiano di Soave and Chardonnay grapes grown in the Soave DOC of Veneto only sees stainless steel and it went through a secondary malolactic fermentation.
Notes of oyster shell and green almonds, pine resin and beeswax, yellow apples and grapefruit pith are released. Similarly slick and resinous in the mouth it has tart citrus and mineral flavours and notable marzipan flavours across the finish.
Pair with gnocchi and creamy risottos, fish and rich 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”.
