When Kelly and Bondar acquired Rayner Vineyard in 2013, they knew that everything depended on the management of site and soil to achieve the excellence of wine they had in mind. The most fastidious husbanding regimens and a tightly scheduled evolution towards organic viticulture, the propitious Rayner vines have never yielded finer harvests, all translating into a tour de force across the entire Bondar range.

Andrew Nugent grew up next door to the great historical wineworks at Penfolds Magill. He honed his craft as viticulturalist and vigneron amongst the illustrious wineries of old McLaren Vale.

Giant Steps seek to make wine that is less overt and obvious than most. The aim is to acquire the best fruit possible, whatever the cost, because without great fruit there can be no great wine. All work is done by hand. Grapes are only picked when optimum flavour ripeness is matched by good natural acidity. Fruit is harvested at night, chilled and crushed, followed by eight hours skin contact to arrive at the gorgeous blushing pink colour. Parcels are pressed to tank and filtered bright before inoculation. Juices are fermented long and cold until full natural carbonation is reached and the balance between sugar and alcohol is achieved. The final wine is cold filtered at -1C to retain freshness and effervescence. Alcohol 5.5%
Pretty in pink with a slight petulance. Turkish delight, fruit tingle, sherbet, fairy floss, fresh fuzzy peach. Raspberry jelly, peach sherbet, rosewater. Clean and crisp. To accompany fresh pancakes and poached fruit, a cheese plate with muscadel raisins, or just on it's own as an elegant apertif.
