Dec 21....gift to Dave & Bev (re home valuation)
Aug 2022...gifted to Eric S, and had some. A good wine but had a strong flavour I wasn't super fond of. Maybe more time/aeration will change that?

March 2024.....pretty sure this is the only one I have, probably gave one away. Was worried it might be bad but on the contrary quite nice. Certainly aged and smooth, but rich with dense fruit flavours, quite lovely. Had with leftover moussaka. (92)

Best's Great Western Bin No. 1 Shiraz 2009, Grampians, Victoria
Victoria, Australia$24.95
2015 + 2016/17
May 2020....all gone now (must have bought minimum 3, maybe more), think I finished off the last bottle maybe fall of 2019. This was a really spectacular shiraz, throughout its entire evolution, but I think I found it most spectacular in its youth.....full of flavour and vibrant. (91+)
