There’s some bunch in the grenache, and the wine was raised in 1700–2700L vats. The medium weighted, accessible, everyday drinking red from Bondar, a wine made to fit the climate and culture of the region. And this nails it, again. Red fruits, pomegranate, cranberry, tart raspberry, rose petals, a background of dried herbs and spice. But it’s no disposable vin de soif, so informed it is by fine tannic detail, crunchy acidity and lingering flavour resonance. Such a beautiful thing.

Their home is Rayner Vineyard on Chalk Hill Road, set on a hillside near the meeting point of Blewitt Springs and Seaview. Bondar acquired the vineyard in 2014, although the site has vine plantings dating back to the 1950s. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1603\" data-end=\"1980\"\u003eThe vineyard is known for Shiraz and Grenache, with plantings also including varieties such as Counoise, Mataro, Carignan and Cinsault. Bondar’s style is focused on freshness, fragrance and balance, with earlier picking, gentle extraction and careful oak use helping create wines that feel bright, savoury and expressive rather than heavy. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1982\" data-end=\"2258\"\u003eJunto means “together”, a fitting name for a wine built from complementary varieties.
