Tasting Notes

Mount Pleasant Philip Shiraz 2022

"Let’s not forget the Philip.
Dark chocolate-dipped cherries, both to smell and to taste, a spike of spiced rum, sage, sarsaparilla note. It’s easy, it’s fruity, it’s ripe, maybe slightly pomegranate-bitter to a modest finish, but medium-bodied and straightforward enough." 90 Points, Kasia Sobiesiak, The Wine Front

The famed estate of Mount Pleasant has a well-storied past, founded by the visionary of Australian wine, Maurice O’Shea. It includes plantings of ancestral vines of 1880, as well as Australia’s oldest mother vine Pinot Noir planted in 1921 by O’Shea himself. It is the home of some of the first fine wines of Australia, and with just five winemakers over its 100-year history, it has maintained its status as a benchmark of the Hunter classics, Shiraz and Semillon.
