Coating the mouth with generous rich flavors, it’s intense and well balanced with a youthful age. Taste the distinction.

Horseshoe Hills

This is a sweet, ruby-red wine that wine, reminiscent of ripe candy apples has a hint of cotton candy in its accompaniment. With flavors approaching and bursting on the palate, the finish is long and rewarding. Matching well with red meats and pasta is just for starters… use your imagination.

Silver Stallion

This dry, white grape is a cross of the famed Chardonnay grape with the popular Seyval, Chardonel is usually barrel fermented, very dry and full bodied. This is great with heavier seafood dishes, as well as chicken with cream sauces.

Wild Horse Ridge

This is a granddaddy of Missouri grapes. Norton grapes produce a rich, full-bodied dry red wine that can be similar in style to Cabernet Sauvignon, with the spicy overtones of a Zinfandel, and berry flavors that go nicely with red meat, smoked meat and wild game. The wine may be bottled as either a Cynthiana or Norton. The Norton 2003 used to make Wild Horse Ridge gives the wine a deep color, rich spice and berry characteristics with a heavy body. Aged in premium oak barrels.
