Three British Army officers, in their capacity as agents of the East India Company, established one of Western Australia's first agricultural enterprises in 1836. Named after Captain Richmond Houghton, it was not until Thomas Yule's stewardship that vines were planted and the first vintage of Houghton wine flowed in 1859. Thomas Yule now sources fruit from the eminent Justin Vineyard in Frankland River, a dark ruby Shiraz of lifted liquorice and intense brambleberry, seasoned by piquant pepper notes and supported by a length of exceptionally fine tannins.
Grapes are all hand harvested and hand sorted, crushed into traditional small open top fermenters and treated to three days of cold soak. Batches are vinified to wild indigenous yeasts, upon completion to dryness, ferments are pressed and filled into a selection of Burgundy coopered French oak barriques for secondary malolactic and fourteen months maturation before assemblage. The inclusion of Malbec rounds out the palate and introduces wonderful complexity.
TASTING NOTES
Dark ruby red. Bright, lifted blueberry and raspberry fruits, hints of black pepper and liquorice with nuances of spicy vanillin oak rounding off the bouquet. The palate is medium to full bodied, filled with an intensity of lozenge fruit flavours. A firm tannin structure with a soft acid balance frame a richly proportioned Shiraz, a long, sustained finish.
 Houghton
Established in 1836, Houghton has the enviable position as Western Australia's most awarded winemaker
Houghton Wines, based in the heart of the Swan Valley, contains a wealth of romantic history. Named after Lieutenant Colonel Richmond Houghton in 1836, the first commercial vintage was produced in 1859 totalling 25 gallons, the foundation for one of Australia's oldest continuous winemakers. The picturesque Houghton winery property today has fifty hectares planted with premium grape varieties including Verdelho, Chardonnay, Semillon and Chenin Blanc. Early documentation and current research suggests the first vines were planted between 1830 and 1836. Houghton»
