Bold Syrah (70%), tempered with a touch of Grenache (30%) make this light ruby colored wine a flavorful choice.  Flavors of white pepper, mountain strawberries and fresh cherries linger on the palate through a savory finish.

The 2016 Syrah from our backdoor vineyards at 3 Horse Ranch in the Eagle Foothills AVA (Winegrowing Appellation) is perhaps the finest wine we have produced to date. 2016 was an excellent vintage for Idaho, with near perfect growing and harvesting conditions. The fruit came in fully ripe, with well developed elegant tannins. This Syrah was partially matured in New French Oak, to add to its mouthfeel, finish and cellar life. This wine is drinking spot-on now, but will continue to gain complexity for the next five to ten years! Do what we do at the Ranch: Pull the cork and put it to use! Also, Idaho Syrah really makes the meal for ANY season, with notes of pepper, allspice, currants, licorice, smoked meats and leather!

MAN, this wine is drinking spot-on right now! Our 2013 (cool-climate vintage) Syrah-Mourvèdre from the Snake River Valley AVA (Winegrowing Appellation) is a classically-styled Northern Rhone Syrah with Old World charms. The Syrah black fruit tones of plums, currants and blackberries are present, yet subdued over time. The vineyard notes of earth, straw, mushrooms, and stone minerals are more recognizable with maturation in the cellar. The pepper, allspice, cloves, cedar, nutmeg and oak tannins all perfectly complement, making for the perfect pairing with game, lamb, smoked meats, steak, and poultry. This wine keeps on giving and giving! It still remains as one of the standout fan favorites at the tasting room, for season veterans and wine newbies alike! Dress up your next dinner or evening with this elegant, seductive Idaho Red! Thank You from @3HorseRanch ! 🤠🍷🍇
