Bobar Viognier. We love this wine. The site. The vines. The intent. The wine. We have a pretty deep connection with this place, how the wine came to be. But you don’t need to think any about that, you can just enjoy the freshness, the waxy texture, the hint of something exotic deep inside. You do you ###

A few old pics there too. Sal and Reggie love the chance to get on some eyeliner. Simon, who made that poster printed BOBAR for us on a hand printing press in the typeface we now use. Special memories. And a former winemaking life… Sal was overseas and when she saw the last pic she was mortified I’d taken kiddos to Gertrude St in such grubby clothes.

Bobar Syrah Malbec. The first wine we made, in 2010, was Syrah. There’s been different shades, little meandering side quests and variations since then but the intent and love has always been the same. In 2023 some Malbec was included in the ferment. And we can treasure that decision forever. That’s the beauty of wine, it lasts forever ###

Bobar Verduzzo. Say that out loud.

Sometimes you cast yourself into situations where the only thing you have to guide you is your own instinct. And there’s no sweeter destination to arrive at than when the journey was blind, without signs, without experience. We were blessed to make this wine, the story of the vineyard is too long to tell here and the real treasure is sharing it with you ###

Bobar Chardonnay, perhaps the wine we make that’s closest to our hearts. The 2023 is gorgeous. Precise, intense, refined. We’re very proud of the reviews we’ve received for it, and always delighted with the joy every single vintage brings to its drinkers. Love you lots, Bobar Chardy ###

Honouring the women that are intrinsic to what bobar is. Like so many things, wine can feel like a lonely tough space at times for girls, but little by little it changes… and the rewards are tasty.

Let’s reel em off, these come to mind but there’s so so many in our little world;
Debbie at , Chol and the girls , the sistas , Steph at Montgomery Haulage, Victoria , and the many, innumerable ladies in the wine trade we deal with, the buyers, somms, servers, retailers, box movers and cork pullers ###

What a time to be alive, the fruits are on their way. Those baby berries… oooft, that’s incoming summer sweetness right there. An abundance of leeks and life’s good. Couple of weekend whites, something local, something from far away.

New wines, 2023’s are released. Made our way, for you.

Viognier - Homestead Vineyard, flowers beds and stonefruit blossoms, waxy flesh, textured, pristine and long. Our Viognier always amazes us, so much vigour and energy

Verduzzo - Bianchet Vineyard, chamomile, orange peel, straw and fresh pear, leatherwood honey, so much tension and presence, an arresting wine. A massive privilege to make a wine from this 40+yo piece of Australian viticultural history

Chardonnay - Nenagh Park, white peach, grilled almond, honeydew melon, taut and long. So excited for this release, builds yet another dimension to the long line of Bobar Chardonnays from this great vineyard

Pinot Noir - Nenagh Park, cherry and blood plum, raspberry, thyme, incredible detail and purity, dense but airy, levity with presence, you must drink it

Syrah Malbec - Highbow Vineyard, plum and spice, mulberry, ink, blackberry and nori. Supple, mineral, complex, brimming with the darkness and the light, restrained generosity. You will love this release
