Fly into Runway Red by Deer Run Winery



Are you looking for a red wine that will make your taste buds soar?  Deer Run Winery has a very nice, bold, spicy red wine that is just for you!

Deer Run Winery is located at the end of the Finger Lakes Wine Trail.  It is a picturesque winery that is not far from Conesus lake.  Deer Run Winery opened its doors to the public in 2003.  In its fist year they produced 5 varietals. After their first year, Deer Run also produced two semi dry wines- one red and one white.  Deer Run has a panoramic view of the Lakeville water tower and airfield. The owners (George, Joan, and Scott Kuyon) thought it would be fun to name these two new wines after the water tower and air field, thus giving you Runway Red and Watertower White.  In addition to their award winning wines, Deer Run offers many different wine-themed educational and social events.  These events include: the vintner's dinner, harvest festival, and wine pairings.  

Recently, I was able to order 6 bottles of wine from Deer Run and had them delivered to my brother and sister-in-law's home in D.C. I am a lucky girl especially since I cannot get wine delivered to me here in KY (www.freethegrapes.com).  One of the bottles that I had was the Runway Red and I highly recommend it. While the wine bottle does not feature a runway model, it does make you feel fashionable.  Runway Red is a bold, red wine with a hint of spice.  It is a well balanced, smooth, semi-dry red wine that will bring class and sophistication to your table.    I paired Runway Red with pot roast, mashed potatoes, and Yorkshire pudding, and it was a great combination. You could also pair Runway Red with pasta, eggplant Parmesan  prime rib, or lasagna.  If you like red wine but find that most red wines are either too dry or have a really strong oak taste, you will be pleasantly surprised by this red, and you may find it to be your favorite red.


If you are in the Finger Lakes region and have some time, go check out Deer Run Winery.  They have a lovely shop that offers their wines and free tastings.  You could also order a bottle online, or go to one of the many store locations listed to find this and some of their other wines.
