Description

Andre Bondar is one of the best makers of Rose in Australia. There. We said it.

And the 2025 is absolutely on point yet again. A blend of Grenache (90%), Cinsault (5%), and Mataro (5%), this rosé is all about freshness, delicacy, and drinkability, perfectly capturing the breezy charm of their coastal home.

It's pale, dry, and full of aromas of red berries, watermelon, and a hint of citrus. The palate is crisp and refreshing, with juicy fruit flavours balanced by a clean, savoury finish. 

Our go-to Aussie Rose and unbeatable value!

"In any year, this is a sure candidate for Australia’s top rosé – for both quality and value ... A benchmark mod-Oz rosé.”
– Young Gun Of Wine, 2023.

"This is benchmark stuff, further cementing Bondar's rosé as a reference point."
- Marcus Ellis, Halliday Wine Companion
"Always one of the country's finest rosés"
- Ned Goodwin MW, Halliday Wine Companion

    2024 Bondar Rose
    Rated 5 out of 5 stars
    One of the best

    I bought some of this on spec - based on the quality of Bondar's red blends.

    Rose can be a bit of a lucky dip because the name tells you very little other than what colour to expect. Behind that name, the thing that counts most is what grapes it's made from. This wine is pretty much all classic McLaren Vale Grenache, with just a dash of Cinsault & Mataro.

    It's medium dry, with a great bouquet of (you guessed it) roses!

    Bonza Bondar!

    Just the right amount of juicy fruit flavour combined with refreshing acidity - just what you want in a gorgeous rose like Bondar's. If you want provenance, drink French, but this is every bit as good. Thanks DD for bringing it to our attention.

Bondar Wines

Andre & Selina Bondar are one of the great modern Australian wine success stories. We have been massive fans of their wines since their very first vintage and tell anyone who will listen that if you want to taste what modern McLaren Vale wines are all about then this is who you need to try.

Their home block, the highly decorated Rayner Vineyard, which straddles the Blewitt Springs and Seaview sub-regions of The Vale, was originally planted back in the 1950s but the Bondar family chapter in that vineyard's story will be its most significant. Dre and Sel's wines are honest and vibrant, built more on freshness and digestibility rather than raw South Australian power.

They make brilliant, vibrant Grenache, balanced and concentrated Shiraz, elegant Adelaide Hills Chardonnay, and one of the country's most bankable Rose wines plus a raft of small-batch alternative varieties. Their range nails quality and drinkability at every turn.
