Nikola Estate Regional Tempranillo

Nestled in the picturesque Frankland River region, the Nikola Regional Tempranillo is a remarkable expression of this varietal, crafted entirely from 100% Tempranillo grapes. The fruit is sourced from the esteemed Swinney vineyard, known for its high-quality yields. To create this robust, full-bodied wine, the grapes were carefully pressed and fermented in open-top fermenters, where they underwent daily plunging to ensure optimal extraction of flavour and tannins. After fermentation, the wine was matured in seasoned oak for eight months, allowing it to develop complexity and depth before the final blend was crafted in November and bottled in December 2023.

On the nose, this 2021 Tempranillo reveals brooding aromas of blackcurrant, blackberry, liquorice, and brown spices, beautifully intertwined with rich dark chocolate and hints of black fruit. As you take a sip, the palate unfolds in layers, showcasing a delightful combination of dark chocolate, succulent black fruits, and enticing liquorice. Each mouthful delivers velvety textures, enhanced by complex notes of raspberry, cassis, tobacco leaf, pepper, maraschino cherries, and roasted coffee. The finish is robust yet soft, lingering with a delicate sprinkle of chalky, fine tannins that invite you back for more.

This wine pairs wonderfully with spicy chorizo and potato Spanish tapas, making it an ideal choice for a lively gathering or a cosy evening at home. Recognised as one of Western Australia’s best Tempranillos of 2021

Nikola Estate meticulously crafts wines from its original grapevines, blending tradition with modern winemaking techniques. This winery is rooted in the rich heritage of the Yukich family, who have been the dedicated caretakers of these historic vines for four generations. Their deep understanding of the land and climate informs every aspect of the winemaking process, resulting in wines that truly reflect the unique character of the Swan Valley.

The Yukich family’s journey began in 1929 when young Croatian immigrant Nikola Yukich arrived in the Swan Valley, filled with dreams of establishing a vineyard in his new home. Starting with modest plantings on his property, he nurtured his aspirations, and over time, his efforts blossomed alongside the family’s growing presence in this esteemed wine-producing region. The dedication and hard work of Nikola laid a strong foundation for what would become a lasting legacy.

In 1989, the Yukich family took a significant step forward by acquiring 117 acres from the Hardy family, a crucial segment of the original Houghton estate. This acquisition led to the establishment of Oakover Wines, further cementing the family’s commitment to the wine industry. The evolution of their venture continued in 2019 when they acquired a neighbouring property, along with the remaining landholdings of Houghton Wines, marking the genesis of Nikola Estate. This strategic expansion not only enhanced their vineyard resources but also deepened their connection to the region’s winemaking heritage.

Today, Nikola Estate Wines uniquely express the terroir of Western Australia and the rare old vines from which they are crafted. Each wine in their collection reflects the strengths of this historic wine region, showcasing a range of styles from the Regional expressions and the premium Gallery wine range to the exquisite Rare fortifieds and approachable Estate wines. The winemaking team focuses on producing wines that are not only elegant and rich but also accessible, inviting wine lovers to experience the distinct qualities that define the Swan Valley. With an unwavering commitment to quality and tradition, Nikola Estate continues to honour its roots while embracing the future of winemaking in Western Australia.
