About this wine
Mount Pleasant 1921 Vines Old Paddock Vineyard Shiraz, Hunter Valley
The Mount Pleasant Block series calls on the hallowed vines planted by Maurice O’Shea—the Old Paddock (1921) and Rosehill (1946). The series also showcases limited quantities of wine from vines familiar to those who visit the winery, the Old Hill. Planted 1880, the vines provided fruit to O’Shea as hewed his reputation from and into the bedrock of the Australian wine story.
Maurice O'Shea planted the Old Paddock vineyard when he took ownership of Mount Pleasant in 1921. These original 100-years-old vines produce exquisite fruit for the single-vineyard 1921 Vines Old Paddock Shiraz.

Expert Review
Campbell Mattinson
High on structure and on fruit. Excellent concentration though it remains medium in weight. Plum and red cherry with hints of deeper blackberry. Earth and spice. A clove-like character. Really fresh, really firm, really good.

Gary Walsh
Blackberry, earthy, deep, bit of spice and liquorice, robust tannin, sweetness of bramble fruit, tempered with earth. It’s fine expression of a distinguished site, wearing its heart on sleeve, for sure. Sweet charm. Open and beautiful.

Deep, dark colour and a reserved, reticent but very youthful nose which needs time to build. The wine is intense and direct, focused and powerful in the mouth, not expansive but fine and focused, with lovely line and length. Good tension and firmness, persistence and power, finishing right out. Masses of fine, powdery, drying tannins. Latent and impressive. Needs plenty of time and is a long-term keeper.
