New Wines At 3 Horse Ranch

2014 Vivacious
We've been hinting about the new Vivacious for weeks and the wait is over. That said, the 2014 Vivacious is delicious!  The Viognier aromas of stone fruit on the nose make us think of apricots and and peaches, the back notes of Roussanne hint of honey  Made in the distinctly French style, crisp and dry, thirst quenching and luscious, this is the wine of long summer evenings and lunchtime picnics with family and friends.  We're enjoying our Vivacious this summer with Shrimp Rolls and Buttered Corn

2014 Eagle Foothills AVA Syrah
3 Horse Ranch Vineyards Single Vineyard Syrah always says spicy, peppery, even leathery to us and this Single Vineyard Eagle Foothills AVA branded bottle of 2014 Syrah is no exception.  Small batch production, only 120 cases, the big bold flavor stands up well to strong food pairings. This is a Syrah lover's Syrah.  Rich in flavor and texture, full of the flavor of ripe fruit from an outstanding vintage in the Eagle Foothills.

This wine bodes well for our upcoming 2014 Single Vineyard red wines. 

2014 Eagle Foothills AVA Sangiovese
Leave it to the Italians to create a wine that is lovely and soft and goes beautifully with food.  Grown in the sandy, loamy soil of the Eagle Foothills AVA, this wine is savory with nice, sweet fruit flavors and good acidic tannins. Rich in tannins, this lovely wine is showing very well now and will keep into the future.  With only 174 cases of this Eagle Foothills AVA branded Sangiovese available this vintage, it will sell out quickly. Enjoy the Sangiovese with this Weeknight Porchetta recipe.
