Established in 1921 by Maurice O'Shea - a pioneer of Australian winemaking - the historic Mount Pleasant winery nestles on the slopes of the Brokenback range in the Hunter Valley.

The hub of various Mount Pleasant vineyards is Mount Pleasant Food and Wine Estate, which is one of the Hunter Valley's most popular wine destinations. Mount Pleasant Estate offers tastings of some of Australia's most respected wines, including Elizabeth and Lovedale Semillon, Rosehill Shiraz and the acclaimed Maurice O'Shea Shiraz.

Set amongst picturesque and historic vineyards, key attractions include Elizabeth's - a relaxed dining venue for lunches, morning and afternoon teas, evening functions and wedding receptions. The Estate also offers a wine-related gift shop, a function centre, picnic facilities, winery tours and special events such as the Hunter Valley Harvest Festival (March - April) and the Budburst Festival in September.

The menu for Elizabeth's - which uses local produce whenever possible - is designed to appeal to both international and domestic tourists. One of the most popular selections is our wine appreciation tasting plate which includes a selection of dishes complimented with a selection of tasting glasses of Mount Pleasant wines.
