Bondar Hope Springs Eternal Clarendon Shiraz 2024

Bondar Hope Springs Eternal Clarendon Shiraz 2024 is a Shiraz from McLaren Vale in South Australia, drawn from the Clarendon subregion.

Clarendon sits at the eastern, higher edge of McLaren Vale where the land rises toward the Adelaide Hills, and it is consistently cooler than the flats closer to the gulf, which generally gives Shiraz from there more acidity and a finer tannin line. Bondar is a McLaren Vale producer working across the region's districts. Specific vineyard and cellar details for the 2024 are not in the material supplied, so they are left out.

Shiraz from the cooler Clarendon side of McLaren Vale usually leans to dark cherry and plum with pepper and a savoury finish rather than sheer sweetness. Serve at 16 to 18 degrees, decanting is optional, and pour it with lamb shoulder, beef ribs or hard cheese.
