Cloudburst wine6/7/2023 ![]() They knew the minute they arrived in Margaret River that they had found their future home (it is a beautiful region), but even then wine was something others did. Cloudburst: a newcomer plunging headfirstįair to say that, given there was not a vine in the ground nor any intention to plant one a little over a decade ago, Cloudburst does walk to the beat of a different drum, making three wines, all single varieties: Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay, the mainstays of the region, and an outlier, Malbec.īerliner, an American biologist who owned outdoor clothing stores, and his wife, Alison Jobson, had spent a number of years searching Australia for the ideal place to live. For a winery to go from dirt to cult in a decade, though, demands investigation, especially when its first wines were wallowing in trophies before they’d even been released.īy chance I found myself next to Cloudburst’s founder and owner, Will Berliner, at the most recent Cape Mentelle International Cabernet Sauvignon Tasting in Margaret River and I’m happy to report that the rumors could not have been further from the mark. The Cloudburst winery was also supposedly difficult to visit and rather dismissive of others in the region the rumors did not paint the friendliest of pictures. What is obvious is that this place offers a very small production of select, extremely high quality, and seriously expensive wines. With a twist.Ĭloudburst is a winery that seems to attract more than its fair share of rumors, though quite why or from where they hail, I have no idea. When mentioned to friends, it was pretty much the same story. Until recently, I’d never seen a single bottle, though I’d heard a number of tales.
