About this Wine

Old Hill is the OG Mount Pleasant vineyard, planted in 1880 by an Englishman of great foresight, Charles King. The Old Hill site continues to produce exceptional quality Shiraz in very low quantities.

Winemaker Adrian Sparks treats this with kid gloves. Meticulous handpicking in three passes, ensuring only the finest bunches are selected. The fruit undergoes destemming and a brief cold soak in small open fermenters, immediately extracting intense colour. Fermentation occurs at 18-25 ˚C over nine days, followed by gentle pressing and maturation in large format French oak barrels, with 20% new oak, for nearly 12 months before blending and bottling.

An awesome release of extreme complexity, the aromas flit around like a butterfly from brown spices to earthy tones, to dark plum and chocolate-covered cherries. The palate is polished and pure rather than rustic. It's not Barossa glossy, more Hunter high-toned, with great balance and a straight-down-the-fairway finish.

Old Hill Vineyard Shiraz is a wine of extreme complexity and finesse, a true gem from Mount Pleasant’s most historic vineyard. What a wine.
