Bondar Violet Hour Shiraz 2022
$30.00As always, Bondar’s Violet Hour Shiraz is handpicked from the Rayner vineyard. A blend of block vines, both young and old (some up to 70 years old). Wild fermented naturally with a high portion of whole-bunches and matured in older French oak (no new barrels were used this year). The wine spent six months resting […]

Bondar Adelaide Hills Chardonnay 2023
$38.00Intense aromatics of grapefruit, fresh and preserved lime, lemon, cashew, cream, wood, citrus blossom and spice. Rich and medium bodied, a wine of energy angles and cut. There’s a little more mid palate flesh than in previous iterations, and I’m not sure if it marks a shift in style or is a reflection of the […]

Bondar Junto GSM 2024
$30.00One of my favourite Bondar wines. We had a 2022 a year after release and it was gorgeous, better after a year in bottle. Vibrant from start to finish with pure black, red and blue fruits, dried flowers and mixed herbs. Curvy, full flavoured and downright easy to drink, with lithe tannins and gentle acidity. […]

Bondar Rayner Vineyard Shiraz 2022
$45.00A very classic style, finessed. Rich and plush, almost full bodied with blueberry, mulberry, blackcurrant, blackberry, Vietnamese mint, black olive, seaweed, soy and five spice. Terrific weave and tension of sweet fruit and savoury elements. Very long, with a mineral, inky close. Also a terrific bargain. Waters Wine Co From the two oldest blocks […]

Bondar Higher Springs Grenache 2022
$75.00A stunning fragrance, like taking a walk through a spice, fruit and smoke-laden market. Compote of tangy red fruits, mulberry, blood orange, rose verbena, Middle Eastern spice and sandalwood. Medium bodied, with an incredible depth of flavour, intensity and palate drive. Textured, with smoldering nebbiolo-like tannins that become finer as the fruit is long. Incredible, […]

Bondar Rayner Vineyard Grenache 2024
$38.00The most high toned and ethereal of the Bondar grenache’s, yet with the succulent oomph and juicy power of McLaren Vale. Lifted red fruits, fresh flowers, fresh herbs, woody notes and pink peppercorns. Medium bodied, intensely fruited, but without the weight of the other wines. Angular and perky, the tannins finessed. Beautiful, almost haunting. Norris […]

Bondar Hope Springs Eternal Shiraz 2023
$74.00If I had to a serve a South Australian shiraz to a European, unversed in Australian wine, then this would be it. Fragrant, with a compote of brambly, red and blueberry fruit, bitter chocolate, Middle Eastern spices, fresh compost, licorice subtle oak. Lucious and sexy, with an intensity and lavishness of fruit that could only […]

Bondar Hope Springs Eternal Grenache 2023
$74.00Phenomenally complex with tar, English summer fruits, blackcurrant, sweet and savoury spice, cola, blood orange and mixed flowers. It’s very expressive from the aromatics to the finish, the palate, succulent and silky, yet the tannins authoritative. Such a serious grenache, without the loss of sensuality. Long, long, long. Amazing. Norris at Waters Wine Co […]

Bondar Midnight Hour Shiraz 2023
$45.00A great vintage for this wine, but let’s be honest, they’ve all been pretty great! A cooler year, allowing greater hang time and the development of more complex flavours. Rich and full bodied, with a certain weightlessness. Supple and silky, with a dark fruit profile, violets, sweet earth, chocolate and tangy red fruits driving from […]

Bondar Violet Hour Shiraz 2023
$30.00The value here has always been super keen. That’s as true as ever with this iteration from a cool year, typically lifted and fragrant but also with some serious import. A tick up from mid-weight, this is spicy and peppered ferruginous minerality, along with blackberry, dark cherries, tapenade, violet, cassia, bay, coffee bean, and salted […]
