WineScores' Review

Tangy, dry, juicy.
The original member of the Kamloops Wine Trail, Harper's Trail has been doing delicious things with estate Riesling and Pinot Noir (among others) grown on the southern banks of the Thompson River for more than a decade. This is a Pinot Noir that went through carbonic maceration and is a new addition to the Harper's Trail portfolio.
A rusty-salmon hue, it leads with wild berries and pomegranate tea, wildflowers and pink peppercorns, orange blossoms and fine spice. Juicy and dry it is a more restrained wine with forest floor, leather, crab-apples and cherry flavours. Light-medium bodied, it's a tangy new addition. Pair::charcuterie, fresh grilled salmon, creamy cheeses or pizza.

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”.
