One of the greatest things about the Great Western wine region is its ability to successfully grow a broad range of grape varieties. Shiraz may be the regional hero, but Cabernet Sauvignon from the area can lay almost equal claim. Best’s Great Western Cabernet Sauvignon is a fine example of the Great Western Regional style; showing rich, mocha and berry fruit with a solid mid-palate weight thanks to superbly concentrated fruit.

Vintage - Good winter rains set the vineyards up for ideal spring growing conditions that saw great flowering and fruit set. The mild summer conditions and long ripening period (with some timely small rain events), ensured that the fruit matured in near perfect conditions for harvest.

This wine is layered and complex with red berry and darker fruit aromas. These characters continue onto the palate, with fruit layers supported by fine oak tannin and lively berry persistence. After a period of cellaring, it is normal for some sediment to form; decanting one - two hours prior to drinking is recommended

This is an elegant Cabernet Sauvignon with intense aromas of mixed berries, woody herbs dark chocolate and violets. The palate is smooth and persistent, with blackcurrant and spicy oak flavours, before finishing with soft and subtle tannins.

The nose is complex and entices with its garrigue character and aromas of blackberry, blueberry and graphite. The palate is exceptionally elegant, yet precise with plummy fruit, redcurrant, very fine grained tannins and a certain nervosité on the mid-palate, suggesting significant ageing potential. The finish is delicate, yet offers length and finesse of fruit.

The nose is complex and alluring, offering redcurrant, black cherry and red plum aromas with whiffs of Herbes de Provence, Cape fynbos and clay dust. The red stone fruit of the nose follows through with flavours of youngberry, boysenberry and notes of lead pencil, pipe tobacco and tealeaf on a smooth palate. Fine-grained powdery tannins contribute to a certain nervosité on the mid-palate, juxtaposed against the opulence of fragrant fruit, firm acidity and smoky cedarwood undertones from integrated French oak. Vibrant berry fruit persists on a clean, focused finish.

Notes of cherry, plum & currant with hints of clove, nutmeg and burnt caramel resulting from aging in American oak barrels.

The 2022 Château Brane-Cantenac opens with a tightly wound bouquet that gradually reveals layers of blackberry, crushed stone, peony, and cracked black pepper. On the palate, it is medium-bodied with finely chiseled tannins, offering a precise and focused structure. The wine showcases a harmonious balance of rich black fruits, tobacco, and spice, culminating in a powerful, long-lasting finish. This vintage exemplifies the elegance and depth characteristic of Brane-Cantenac's Margaux terroir.

Fairly typical of the best of this style from the Gippsland region with the added mineral complexities we attribute to our granite soils.
