Tasting Notes
This is the new release of the incredible 2021 vintage. Bin 0 is made to be an age worthy style and has been the undisputed icon of Great Western Shiraz for many decades. Made from the three-shiraz blocks surrounding our Concongella winery; Bart’s Block from 1966, Sparky’s Block from 1970 and a selection from our White Gravels Hill block planted in the early 1990’s. It is internationally acclaimed as one of Australia’s great Shiraz wines, noted as classified by Langton’s in their latest Classification.
A delicious coupling of red and black primary fruits. Tones of red cherry, cranberry, blackberry, bramble. Complex creamy mid-palate of clove, cinnamon, and dried herb. Rich, chocolate tannins coat the mouth, and are well balanced with medium acidity. - Producer Note
Best’s is one of Australia’s most historic family-owned wineries, founded in 1866 by Henry Best in the Great Western subregion of Victoria’s Grampians. The estate is renowned for its remarkable collection of old vineyards, including some of the country’s oldest and rarest plantings of Shiraz and Pinot Meunier, with vines dating back to the 1860s. These ancient, pre-phylloxera vines remain a living link to Australia’s viticultural heritage and form the foundation of the estate’s most iconic wines.
The Thomson family has guided Best’s since 1920, farming sustainably and combining tradition with modern precision. The range is anchored by Shiraz, from the approachable Bin No. 1 to the profound Thomson Family Shiraz, alongside distinguished expressions of Cabernet, Riesling and Pinot Meunier. In the cellar, the winemaking is restrained and thoughtful, highlighting purity of fruit, regional spice and fine structure.
Today, Best’s stands as a benchmark of Great Western, producing wines that are elegant, age-worthy and deeply rooted in history, while remaining fresh and relevant to a new generation of wine lovers.
