Scott McWilliam recently presented a truly wonderful tasting in Dublin. It arrived to us in three distinct flights. Each was fascinating.
Scott's family makes some of the most awarded wines in Australia at McWilliam's Wines home to the McWilliam's and Mount Pleasant labels.
Our blog over at WineIreland.blog guides us through the tasting which culminated in two of the finest wines we have tasted this year - the Mount Pleasant Lovedale Semillon and the Maurice O'Shea Shiraz 2014.
After the tasting Scott chatted to us at the WinePod about how his family makes some of the finest wines in Australia.
Thanks to Ampersand Wines and also to the Australian Embassy where the tasting was held Indeed, thanks to Ambassador Richard Andrews for the use of his office for the podcast interview!
On an aside it is brilliant to see that McWilliam's presented the Maurice O'Shea Award 2019 to Robert Hill Smith of Yalumba. This is a coveted award to an organisstion, event or individual for outsanding contribution to the Australian Wine industry. Listen HERE to Robert when he visited us at the WinePod earlier this year!
