McWilliams retain some of the Hunter Valley's and Margaret River's finest sites. The estate has made fortuitous use of their widely dispersed vineyard assets to isolate the perfect parcels of Semillon and Sauvignon Blanc for an east meets west, classically styled dry white. The team have collated the pick of their West Australian fruit, steely and piquant grapes with crunchy green characters, passionfruit and lime. Delivered to the estate's wineworks at Pokolbin and assembled with some of the Hunter Valley's best Semillon, into a tightly knit, vigorous fruit forward white.
Mount Pleasant is one of the most awarded wineries in Australia. The Hunter Valley is widely regarded as the home of Semillon, and the McWilliam's Mount Pleasant vineyards are the source of some of Australia's finest. Hand harvesting techniques are used to carefully select the fruit, ensuring that only the healthiest and ripest berries are picked. Grapes are delivered to the winery where they are destemmed, crushed and must chilled, allowing the juices to be drained from the skins. Fermentation using a neutral yeast is slow and cool to retain natural fruit flavours. Unoaked and unwooded, the finished wine was stabilized and immediately bottled into an engagingly fruit driven classic dry white. Approx 10.5%
TASTING NOTES
A very pale straw colour with green hues. Gooseberry, passionfruit and lime aromas with subtle hints of fresh cut straw. Fresh, crisp fruit flavours of passionfruit and lime gives the palate great length. The wine finishes with lovely texture and ripe honeydew melon flavours.

About Mount Pleasant Winery
McWilliam’s Mount Pleasant Estate nestled in the slopes of the Brokenback Range in the Hunter Valley was established in 1921 by legendary winemaker, Maurice O’Shea
The Griffith-based McWilliam family, already a famous Australian wine company, purchased a half share of the Estate and encouraged O’Shea to continue with his winemaking style and creations. McWilliam’s acquired the remaining share in 1941. It was with the McWilliam family’s financial backing O’Shea selected and purchased the Lovedale and Rosehill properties and planted them in 1946. O’Shea’s groundbreaking work has been kept alive by revered winemakers Brian Walsh and Phil Ryan. The fact that there have been just three Chief Winemakers at Mount Pleasant since 1921 has ensured consistency of wine style and quality. Mount Pleasant»
