Bondar Junto GSM 2023
$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 Monastrell 2022
$34.00Bondar’s Monastrell (Mourvedre) is a limited release (only 100 dozen are made). It comes from fruit off the Lacey vineyard in Willunga, where rocky clay loam soils lie over the revered Kurrajong geology formation. The 15-year-old vines here are farmed with minimal inputs, and the winemaking follows a similar path, with hand-picking, no additions, and […]

Bondar Clarendon Shiraz 2022
$75.00Seductive, like a lovely blanket of autumnal, Australian sun. Magnificent shiraz, with blueberry, blackberry, sweet English summer fruits, geranium, licorice, clove, black olive and almond paste. Succulent and juicy, with vibrancy and curve, the wine’s structural elements, shaping yet not defining. Savoury elements of fresh compost, oyster and squid ink buttress the pure and pristine […]

Bondar Rayner Vineyard Grenache 2023
$38.00A thoroughly singular grenache, from a winemaker I suspect loves pinot noir and nebbiolo. Wafting aromatics, sultry, with cherry, rhubarb, pomegranate, English summer fruits, rose verbena, violets and biscuit. Deep flavour, yet light and gentle, with lovely sinewy, grippy tannins, that melt to something more tea like. Long carry, nudged by a lovely line of […]

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.
