Our Review
Houghton’s reputation was once largely dependent on its (then) White Burgundy. Its portfolio now changed to a kaleidoscopic range of high-quality wines from the Margaret River, Frankland River, Great Southern and Pemberton regions to the fore. In Nov ‘19 the Houghton property was sold to the Yukich family, who had acquired part of the property in ‘90 and established Oakover Wines. The reunited vineyard relaunched as Nikola Estate (see separate entry), in honour of Nikola Yukich, who emigrated from Croatia and planted vines in the Swan Valley over 90 years ago. The Houghton brand was retained by Accolade. -JAMES HALLIDAY
