Our Review
Best’s winery and vineyards date back to 1866. Several of the vines planted in the Nursery Block have defied identification and are thought to be unique to this location, with no known counterparts elsewhere in the world. The Thomson family has owned the property since 1920. Best’s consistently produces elegant, supple wines; the Bin No. 0 is a classic, the Thomson Family Shiraz is magnificent. Very occasionally, a unique pinot meunier is made solely from the 1868 plantings. Best's were awarded Best Value Winery for the 2022 Companion. -HALLIDAY TEAM
