WineScores' Review

Silky, woven, harmonious.
From the Pedernal Valley in San Juan in Mendoza province, this wine comes from vines grown at 1350m above sea level, it's been a few vintages since I've had this wine, and it's still as wonderful as ever.
The nose is fresh and scented with liberal black current, pipe tobacco, chocolate, toasted spices and vanilla. Like the nose the palate is velvety. It has a silky entry and lively purple fruit flavours underscored by spice. Woven and harmonious with a chocolaty finish. Pair: Grilled meats and sausages, wild mushroom ravioli, hard cheeses.


Pairs great with Gone Crackers Parmesan & Rosemary
 
 
Recommended Pairings

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.
