Tasting Notes

Vineyard ‘Run 245’ was the pastural tenure number given to this Central Otago land in 1866. Since that time it has rewarded those who have walked it - now producing very distinctive wines. This is the first wine under the ‘Run 245’ label crafted from a blend of the younger Dijon clones. Hand harvested this wine has matured in oak for one year.
