    2023 Bondar 'Junto' Grenache, Shiraz, Mataro

    • $32.00

    A Southern Rhone style blend that is intended to be unpretentious and an easy to drink, bistro style. The Grenache leads the blend with its pretty red fruits and perfume, and the other varieties help to 'complete' the wine, elevating it to a more complex and balanced place. The main contributors to this are the Shiraz which adds flesh, and the Mataro which gives savoury spice and some structure.  The fruit is all picked by hand, is handled gently in the winery, and is fermented and aged in old oak.

    Grenache (65%), Shiraz (16%), Mataro (8%), Carignan (3%).

    Review
    “Made with approximately 20% whole bunch including a portion of carbonic maceration and matured in French hogsheads and puncheons (10% new). A medium-bodied, fragrant and elegant wine that opens up with red and black fruits, floral notes, pink peppercorns and blood orange. On the palate, this has real grip, intensity and persistence, and this will totally reward those who still have some in their cellar a decade from now.”
