Ultimate Winery Experiences Australia (UWEA) has welcomed Mount Pleasant Wines in NSW’s Hunter Valley to its hand-selected wine tourism collective.
One of the Hunter Valley’s most iconic and historic wineries, Mount Pleasant was founded in 1921 by Maurice O’Shea, who is widely regarded as the father of modern Australian winemaking for his pioneering approach to table wines, meticulous blending techniques and use of French oak, at a time when fortified wines dominated the market.
