Since 1866, Best’s Wines has been continuously producing exceptional wines with great longevity. With a reputation for elegant and balanced Shiraz, Best’s is run by the fifth generation of the Thomson family and is known to have some of the oldest vines in Australia.
Best’s Bin O Shiraz is sourced from four low yielding ‘Concongella’ Shiraz blocks. First produced prior to 1900, Bin O Shiraz has been for many decades an undisputed icon of the Great Western Shiraz style, and is internationally acclaimed as one of Australia’s great Shiraz wines.
The esteemed Langton’s Classification of Australian Wine regards Bin 0 Shiraz as one of Australia’s most important wines, including it with only a handful of other great wines in the ‘Distinguished’ category. Bin 0 Shiraz is proving to be a mandatory addition to any serious collector’s wine cellar.
