| Awards | Tasting Notes |

Mount Pleasant’s decision to continue to bottle-age commercial quantities of Mount Pleasant Elizabeth Semillon until its considered at the peak of its development is repeatedly vindicated by the wine’s incredible show success and perfect development.

Every year, a limited quantity of Mount Pleasant Elizabeth is reserved for extended cellaring under perfect conditions. As these wines reach optimum maturity, they are release under the ‘Museum Release’ label. At this stage of development, the wine is typically showing all the classic characteristics of Hunter Semillon with beautiful honey and toast characters. Often, even at this advanced stage, the wine continues to be awarded trophies and gold medals at major wine shows.

Try this wine with... Knife & fork

Roast flathead tails and lime beurré blanc or pan fried chicken breast, potato mash and tarragon cream sauce.
