A distinguished partnership between two highly celebrated vineyard sites planted in the 19th and early 20th centuries. Together the 10 hectares of old gnarly Shiraz vines, have buried their roots deep in the ancient volcanic soil. Mount Pleasant Old Paddock & Old Hill Shiraz. The Old Paddock Vineyard enjoys an elevated easterly aspect overlooking Mount Pleasant Estate and some of the oldest Shiraz vines in the world. Fruit from these low-yielding vines is blended with Shiraz from the nearby Old Hill Vineyard, first planted in 1880, delivering a complex, brooding wine, rich in character and steeped in heritage.
