Clarendon wine sale a boost for local jobs

The sale of Clarendon’s Hickinbotham Vineyard to a major US wine group is expected to create almost 20 local jobs. Jackson Family Wines bought the 186ha property last week, after it was put on the market in October 2010 for $10 million following the death of owner and prominent builder Alan Hickinbotham. It is the Jackson family’s second vineyard purchase in the McLaren Vale region, after they bought Kangarilla’s Yangarra Estate a decade ago, reports Southern Times Messenger.
