Our Wines
Shop Our RangeEstablished in 1921 by Maurice O'Shea — widely regarded as Australia's greatest ever winemaker, a man so revered that Max Schubert felt "humbled in his presence" — Mount Pleasant is the birthplace of the Shiraz-Pinot blend, presiding over a tapestry of Australia's most important vineyards, including the oldest Pinot Noir vineyard in the country and home to the iconic MV6 clone. With vines dating back to 1880, the narrative is written in our soil; from these extraordinary vineyard blocks we craft Semillon, Shiraz and Pinot Noir that have defined the regional benchmark for over a century, none more so than the 1937 Mountain A and 1944 Mount Henry, named by James Halliday among the seven greatest Australian red wines ever made.
Adrian Sparks
Shortlisted for Halliday Winemaker of the Year
We are proud to share that Mount Pleasant’s Chief Winemaker, Adrian Sparks, has been shortlisted for the 2027 Halliday Wine Companion’s Winemaker of the Year. It is a recognition that speaks to more than twenty-five years of dedication, a deep love of the Hunter Valley, and achievements that include Hunter Valley Winemaker of the Year, multiple NSW Wine of the Year titles, and a string of near-perfect scores from Australia’s most respected critics. For those of us at the heart of Mount Pleasant, it comes as no surprise, Adrian has been consistently making some of the best wines in the country.
"There's an argument to say that Mount Pleasant is Australia's most important wine estate."
