"An outstanding vintage for Bin 0, this is a very pretty wine in an unashamedly elegant mould, laced together with black pepper, plum skin and wisps of lemon blossom. A wine of great presence and structured poise; it will be very long-lived."
Tyson Stelzer, Wine 100 Jan/Feb 2011
The Big Red Wine Book 95 points!"The Best's winery in the Grampians region of north-west Victoria was established in 1866. This shiraz was martured in all-French oak.
Don't go looking for a blockbuster. Indeed this is more the kind of red you should be looking at it you're putting a cellar collection together, rather than for immediate consumption. It's dry and spicy, long and juicy. It has a sense of calm majesty about it - no ranting or raving; it's more abouty medium-weight quality. Long chains of tannin, persistence - it's an excellent wine."
Campbell Mattinson and Gary Walsh, The Big Red Wine Book 2010/11
Campbell Mattinson 94+ points!"Best's Bin 0 Shiraz is in good form, and 2007 has produced a swag of good reds from these parts. Best's hasn't let us down.
Dry and spicy, long and juicy. Has a sense of calm majesty to it - no ranting or raving; just good, clean, bright fruit flavour. Boysenberries and cherries, musk and smoky cedarwood. Medium-weight. Long chains of tannin. Persistence - all sown up. Excellent wine."
Campbell Mattinson, The Wine Front, Apr 10
Ralph Kyte-Powell 4.5 stars!"Great Western is one of Australia's finest red wine regions, with a history of producing shiraz of style and longevity. The two best-known wineries are Seppelt and Best's. Best's Bin No. 0 2007 is a fine example of regional stype, with spicy raspberry fruit, earthy complexity and restrained vanillin oak. The palate has subtle flavour and fine texture."
