Bondar Rayner Vineyard Shiraz 2020 (6 Bottles) McLaren Vale

$272.00 GST Included

AUSTRALIA WIDE SHIPPING INCLUDED

Combines fruit from the two oldest Shiraz blocks in Bondar’s Rayner Vineyard (Blewitt Springs): a 1947 planting on deep sandy soils with ironstone rocks (75%) and a 1950 planting on shallow clay over limestone (25%).

Andre tells us that the former portion provides “fragrance and elegant structure,” while the latter “gives the bones.” Hand-picked and fermented with roughly 20% whole bunches, the wine was aged for 18 months in mostly used French hogsheads (5% new) and was hand-bottled, in September 2019, without fining or filtration.

About Us

We are a little family wine company making wines from our favourite regions McLaren vale and Adelaide Hills. Our home is the iconic Rayner Vineyard in McLaren Vale. We want to make wines that are lighter, brighter, more savoury, structured and intriguing. Different.

Over the last few years since we started this endeavour we have been honoured to be named James Halliday’s Best New Winery in his 2017 Australian Wine Companion, to have won multiple trophies at the McLaren Vale Wine Shows we have entered, and to have been named one of the Top 50 Young Guns of Wine in 2018 and 2020.

Fine Wine Cellars

On the one hand, our role as a merchant of all things wine & spirits could not be simpler. We aim to source the most delicious, the most authentic, and the highest quality products possible from Australia and around the world in order to offer them to our clients. We live or die by how well we perform this task. Of course things are rarely as simple or as easy as they seem. Hunting for wines & spirits is no different. Apart from the months spent travelling, countless days and evenings spent tasting and the outrageous wine expenditure in the name of ‘research’, sourcing quality wine and spirits requires expertise and experience. Understanding the potential of a producer and their products is much more than just a slurp and a spit.
