1997 Mount Pleasant Maurice O'Shea Shiraz 750ml

The 1997 Mount Pleasant Maurice O’Shea Shiraz is a distinguished Hunter Valley release that pays tribute to Australia’s greatest winemaking pioneer. Sourced from historic vines, this vintage reflects the unique character of the region with elegance, balance, and remarkable depth. The nose reveals layers of blackberry, plum, and red currant, intertwined with notes of cedar, tobacco, leather, and earthy spice. On the palate, concentrated dark fruits are supported by fine-grained tannins and lively acidity, giving structure and freshness. Subtle savoury undertones and a long, harmonious finish highlight its maturity and class. Serving & Cellaring Best paired with roast beef, lamb shanks, or aged hard cheeses. Drinking beautifully now, with the complexity of a fully matured wine, yet capable of rewarding further careful cellaring.
