WineScores' Review

Tangy, zesty, slick.
From the Golden Mile Bench, this pale peachy sophmore edition Wild Ferment is a blend of Cabernet Franc (60%), Syrah (25%), Malbec (15%) and Syrah that was made with minimal intervention.
Using 100% wild yeast, it was fermented in a combination of stainless steel (70%) and neutral French oak (30%).
Bitter orange and rhubarb aromas mingle with currents and warm honey, charred cedar and a dollop of yogurt. Similar bitter orange and tangy red fruit dominate the palate layered with flavours of charred spice and burnt honey. Fresh and zesty with a slick texture, this is a rose to pair with grilled fish, smoked tofu and noodles, or chicken salad.

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”.
