Best's Great Western Bin 1 Shiraz 2021 x 12
Product Description
Best’s Great Western as a Shiraz ‘house’ has gathered experience with the
variety through the legacy of Best’s long winemaking history dating back to
the 1860’s. Bin 1 Shiraz is the wine that often gives people an introduction
to the regional style of Great Western Shiraz.
Made predominantly from Best’s own vineyards, Bin 1 Shiraz represents the
essence of Best’s winemaking ideals and the uniqueness of the Great
Western region.
Bin 1 is a classic, cool climate, aromatic Shiraz, made in a style that is
perfumed, spicy and peppery, yet well balanced. It’s a great match with
food - particularly dishes like spring lamb.

TASTING NOTES
Colour: Brooding deep red
Bouquet: Notes of pepper, oak, liquorice, deep red fruits with a slight
herbaceous stalky character.
Palate: Deep earthy and dark fruits, a long palate that is tight along
the sides with the slightest hint of savoury herbs. While its
young, it will benefit from decanting.
Cellaring: This vibrant wine is great to enjoy now with food but will
soften and gain complexity over the next 5-10 years.
Ideal to drink with a meat lovers pizza with added capsicum
and mushrooms.
Vintage: A hot and dry growing season meant our shiraz vines ripened
quickly however crops were lower than average. Sufficient
water supply ensured our vines remained in good health and
a cool February helped ensure all the natural acidity was
retained at harvest. The grapes had plenty of concentrated
flavour and vibrant acidity.
