WineScores' Review

Outstanding, pristine, juicy.
Lunessence is a sustainable estate winery located in Summerland and this single vineyard Blanc de Noirs is a blend of 81% Syrah with Merlot, which was partially barrel fermented (35%) in neutral French oak, then aged in a mix of French oak and stainless steel on lees for five months.
It has a pearlescent pink hue and aromas of apple blossoms, honeysuckle, bitter orange, strawberry and rhubarb are layered with mountain stream and faint cedary notes. The palate is dry, pristine, and sleek with a lovely mouthwatering brightness and flavours of tangy orange and red berries with earthy undertones.
Outstanding.

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”.

We do not share your email address with anyone. Your email address will be used for the WineDiva newsletter You can opt out of receiving the newsletter anytime.
