Wineries of the Grampians

    Best's Wines "Concongella"    
   
Established in 1866, Best's Winery is among Australia's oldest small family wineries.
With its original 1860s vineyard block full of a staggering number of obscure ancient vines, and with its wonderful musty old underground cellars, Best’s is one of Victoria’s must-visit places. The Thomson family are fully aware of their heritage and keep the traditions of this place very much alive. Not surprisingly (given it is a regional specialty), Shiraz is the hallmark wine at Best’s. Located at Concongella Vineyard, Great Western, 1km off Western Highway (Highway 8) Stawell side of Great Western.

Open Mon-Sat 10am-5pm; Sunday 11am-4pm.
