The fan favorite 3HRV red wine, 2016 Beau Geste makes it entrance now. This wine WOW’s at first taste: 55% Cabernet Sauvignon, 17% Cabernet Franc, 14% Malbec, 7% Merlot, & 7% Petite Verdot. It’s a brooding, rich sophisticated effort with well integrated tannins. Pull the cork now or wait 10 years.

Wow! Just 252 cases (8 barrels!) were made of this fantastic 100% Single-Vineyard 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon from 3 Horse Ranch in the Eagle Foothills AVA . Obvious notes of black and red currants, black cherries, allspice, cloves, nutmeg, anise, and dark cocoa abound. Exceedingly lush and rich, this textured velvety Cabernet offers a protracted finish of finely integrated barrel and grape tannins. This wines continues to gain ground and become more interesting with each passing month. It drinks well now. However, if you can resist, cellar this wine and enjoy 2019 through 2030. Thank You from @3HorseRanch!

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!

“Oh, no thank you, I don’t drink Merlot.” Ok, indulge me, try it, and cross it off your list.  A fantastic drinker and food pairing wine that definitely over-delivers its price point. Wonderfully balanced with black fruit notes of blackberries, black currants, boisenberries and plums. Complimented by French Oak for rich mouthfeel and long finish. 

Where to begin? Where to end? We all just fell in love with this wine in the cellars, in February 2017 when we tasted barrel samples prior to its bottling. Just 79 cases (3 barrels!) were made of this 100% Single-Vineyard Cabernet Franc from our own backyard vineyards in the Eagle Foothills AVA . It's a bold, opulent dark inky with with silky smooth tannins from both fruit and oak barrels. All of the dark fruits are on full display, among them blackberries, black currants, blueberries, and plums. Hints of wheatgrass and bell pepper verify the tell-tale signature of a well-made Cabernet Franc. This will please audiences today, and thrill audiences in years to come, as it further integrates and matures from cellaring. Going, going, gone! Thank You from @3HorseRanch ! 🤠🍷🍇
