Elegance, juicy, fragrant.
Pioneering outside of the Okanagan Valley in Kamloops, Harper’s Trail is named for another upstart, cattle drive rancher, Thaddeus Harper. This reserve Cab Franc comes from the estate Thadd Springs Vineyard and delivers fragrant aromas of purple flowers and vanilla, licorice, concord grapes, cocoa, pipe tobacco and a hint of peach stone. It's fresh and juicy with flavours that mimic the nose. Nice restraint and elegance overall.
Pair: halibut rolled in almonds, pasta in cream sauces, roast chicken or turkey, smoked gouda grilled cheese.
