2017 Cabernet Franc

One of the varieties grown in our 13 Arce Block, it was planted as Merlot, but as it grew, it looked and behaved differently, and after investigation it was found to be Cabernet Franc. Made only a few times since it's planting in the 1980's, (when we have some spare), this wine has the ability to age well (the 1998 is looking superb).

2017 LSV Shiraz

This wine contains Shiraz from the best elevated vineyards in Great Western and is co-fermented with a small amount of Viognier. The viognier helps brighten the colour, lift the aromatics and polish the Shiraz flavours on the palate.

2017 13 Acre Cabernet Sauvignon

Our 13 Acre Block is the first block you pass coming down the drive. It was planted in the early 1980 to Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and a couple of rows of Petit Verdot. Made in only the best years, it shows what great wines are possible from this small patch.

2016 Bin 0 Shiraz Magnum

Shiraz has been the hallmark variety of Best's since the first vines were planted back in the 1868. Our Bin 0 has been around since the beginning, as well as the top grade of wine produced. Picked off the Concongella vineyard here at the winery, these wines show balance and length with a generous and rounded fruit structure, and have a natural ability to age.

2017 White Gravels Hill Shiraz

Made from a few select rows from a patch of vines planted on the gravel hill across the road from the winery, this wine displays more aromatic characters and elegance than it's counterparts from the clay flat country along the creek at the winery.

2018 Foudre Ferment Riesling

This wine is a representation of another facet of Riesling’s charms. Displaying complex aromatic honeyed richness with texture and acidity to balance, it is the ideal accompaniment to stinky creamy cheese.

Best’s high-flying fight against frost

There are some challenges in viticulture that are hard to plan for, and the devastating black frost of 4 November 2017 was one that took its toll. Despite having frost fans set up in the vineyard, the sudden onslaught of a cold burst of air that immediately settled on Best’s Concongella vineyard wiped out a large percentage of our fruit. The resulting 2018 harvest was decimated. If you’ve not heard the story, we wrote about the impact of the frost in a previous post back in early December 2017.
