Mount Pleasant Wines
Highlights
Overview
Immerse Yourself in the Legacy of Australian Winemaking at Mount Pleasant.
For over a century, Mount Pleasant has been a pioneer in Australian winemaking, and today it offers a wine experience unlike any other.
Step into the historic Mount Pleasant homestead and discover a place where heritage meets elegance. Nestled in the heart of the Hunter Valley, the cellar door overlooks the very vineyards that Maurice O'Shea—widely regarded as the founding father of modern Australian winemaking—brought to life in 1921.
Here, you'll explore wines crafted from rare ancestral vines, including the oldest Pinot Noir plantings in the country at the iconic Old Hill vineyard, best known for its exceptional Shiraz. Taste the depth and complexity of Hunter Valley Shiraz and Pinot Noir, and experience the aging brilliance of Lovedale Semillon—hailed as one of the world's greatest Semillon vineyards.
Led by Chief Winemaker Adrian Sparks, each curated tasting experience is designed to showcase the individuality and beauty of these historic vineyard sites. Whether you're a seasoned wine lover or a curious explorer, Mount Pleasant offers a journey through time, terroir, and taste.
Many have followed, but there is only one Mount Pleasant. Come and experience the benchmark of Australian wine.
