In what may be even better news, the Aussie wine which has been rated the best in the world doesn’t come with the expected heavy price-tag.

A bottle of Taylors’ Jaraman Shiraz is selling for just $20.90 at Dan Murphy’s, meaning the Aussie grog that’s the best worldwide could be in your glass for a very reasonable cost.

WAWWJ president Leonardo Cantellani praise the performance of Australian wineries in 2017.
