Open That Bottle Night Day is celebrated annually on the last Saturday of every February. This is your invitation to join in the global celebrations that are Open That Bottle Night.
The Australian wine industry is rich in family histories that weave together to create a unique story about Australian wine. There are many family-owned wineries that remain in family hands, with the fourth, fifth or even sixth generations.
Best’s Sparkling Shiraz is enjoyed all year round, but it’s particularly great at Christmas time with roast turkey. Discover why this is such a unique Australian wine and why Best’s brought it back.
We are thrilled to announce that two of our wines have made James Halliday’s Top 100 Wines for 2020. Read on to find out more about the judging process and Halliday’s reviews.
There’s an old saying that “behind every great man is a great woman” and that’s certainly the case with Viv and Chris Thomson. In the 100th year that the Thomson family has been custodians of Best’s wines, we thought it was time to ‘raise a glass’ to our treasured Chris. She’s very much the fabric of our winery and the local Great Western community.
In the long history of Best’s, only six non-family members have served as our winemaker. All others have been either a Thomson or a Best. So, it’s a significant milestone for one of these few, our current winemaker Justin Purser, to celebrate 10 years’ tenure.
Thai pork larb sounds exotic, but it’s really just a gorgeously fresh salad that you can have on the table in less than 30 minutes and requires very little work. The aromatics in this dish pair perfectly with a glass of Great Western Rosé!
Made from Henry Best’s first plantings at our Concongella vineyard, the historic Nursery Block is a veritable vineyard museum with 39 separate varieties, eight remaining unknown and unnamed to this day. This is a wine that speaks more about history, soil and place than variety, a unique expression of our Australian wine heritage.
One of the greatest things about the Great Western wine region is its ability to successfully grow a diverse range of grape varieties. Shiraz may well be the regional hero, but Cabernet Sauvignon from the area can lay almost equal claim to fame.
Beef Bourguignon is a classic red-wine beef stew that originated in the gastronomic city of Burgundy in France. Our interpretation on this culinary delight is simply delicious and a team favourite here at Best’s. Enjoy with a glass of Best’s wine for the perfect dinner experience!
Bin No. 1 is a classic, cool climate, aromatic Shiraz, made in a style that is perfumed, spicy and peppery, yet well balanced with no overt dominance of alcohol. It’s a great match with food – particularly dishes like spring lamb.
