What is a Super Tuscan style wine?  It's a wine made with grapes not native to Tuscany, Italy, so for example Sangiovese with other Bordeaux style fruit.

For example, our l'Occasione is made with 50% Sangiovese (classic Italian Chianti), blended with Syrah, Merlot, Tempranillo and Cabernet Franc.  The result is a fruity and racey wine that is super food friendly.  

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! 

The fan favorite 3HRV red wine, 2018 Beau Geste makes it entrance now. Beautiful blend of 36% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot, 17% Malbec, 15% Cabernet Franc, 14% Malbec, & 7% Petite Verdot. Plush and expansive fruit flavors and beautiful finish. Pull the cork now or wait 10 years.

Where to begin? Where to end?  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 ! 🤠🍷🍇
