WineScores' Review

Pleasing, fresh, pristine.
Only 175 cases (less than last vintage) of this Syrah and Merlot blend rose was made. In recent vintages it's gotten noticeably paler in hue (it is more of a stained pink now), which was by winemaker Howard Soon's design.
Peach and tangerine and dusty summer berries are layered with light floral and grapefruit notes. It's got a pleasing kiss of sweetness, which makes red fruit pops; a spritz of tangerine, peach skin and vanilla round out the palate. Fresh, zesty and pristine, and IMO better than the 2018.

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”.
