Notes - Wines under the Great Western label are produced from grapes grown on Best's Great Western estates. Until recently they were entirely from the historic Concongella estate but with the "baby" of the trio, Salvation Hills coming on stream, future Great Western wines may have a percentage component of Salvation Hills grapes. Harmonious elegance is the hallmark of this wine with its definite peaks of flavour and good length. Aged in American oak puncheons, the colour is brilliant crimson while the bouquet shows fresh spicy Shiraz fruit and hints of pepper. Lighter in structure than its sister Bin 0, it is eminently drinkable now but under good cellaring conditions, has the attributes to mature in the bottle for a number of years. Great with very hearty, robust spicy dishes or your more casual meal, such as herbed spicy Italian style sausages, lamb with olives or even grilled or roasted highly seasoned antipasta
