Victorian wool grower the best in the world

The best super fine wool in the world has been awarded to Gary Meek from Western Victoria. 

Celebrated by Italian weaving company Vitale Barberis Cononico, Gary’s wool is now being used to create $10,000 Armani and Zegna suits. 

‘I haven’t seen the suit yet, but it’s nice to be rewarded,’ Gary told Ross and John. 

With below average rainfall for the past decade, feed has been very important for the natural fibre of the sheep.
