Precise, racy, lip-smacking.
Having forged the Kamloops Wine Trail (and as of 2018 the Thompson Valley sub-GI), Harper’s Trail has been doing delicious things with estate Riesling and Pinot Noir (among others) on the southern banks of the Thompson River for many years now.
The estate is named for another pioneer, cattle drive rancher, Thaddeus Harper who lived in the region in the 1800s.
Notes of lemon drops and green apples, lime, honey, wildflowers, straw and petrol lead to a snappy palate with a slick texture, racy acidity and crunchy tree fruit and citrus flavours. The finish is lip-smacking.
