WineScores' Review

Addendum is another new addition to the Black Hills portfolio; a blend of Merlot 80%, 10% Cabernet Franc and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon sourced from four vineyards. It was aged for 12 months in French oak barrels (35% new).
It has distinct umami notes: muddled blackberry, green herbs, smoked meat, plum compote, cocoa and leather. The palate is equally muddy: salt and cocoa, peppery spices and black fruit flavours lead to a smooth finish. Seems lacking in freshness and needs focus--a confusing wine.
For sale to club members only 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”.
