Description

Cloudburst is the labour of love of Will Berliner. Situated in Margaret River’s Wilyabrup sub-region, Cloudburst boasts an impressive list of accolades for its short history, a testament to Will’s vision to create exceptionally detailed expressions of Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Malbec, from his minuscule vineyard. Behind the intensity, elegance and power of Cloudburst wines, is Will’s very deliberate ‘hands-off’ approach; close planted, dry grown, organically managed and with zero mechanisation or synthetic input, nature is given the space to bear fruit as intended. As Will himself puts it, ‘everything we do is interrelated with the cycles of nature’ – a philosophy that is producing consistently astonishing wines that somehow, only keep getting better.

Bright and quite intense yellow colour with green hue. Expressive nose with elegant reduction, graphite and matches, backed by juicy fruit, granadilla, ripe pear and tangerine zest. Vanilla and expressive toasting. On the palate well structured refined acidity, distinct minerality, fine toasting and excellent fruit quoting the nose. A chardonnay with great length and depth. The wine shows an impressing stability and evolution. The opened bottle was kept in the fridge and tasted after 6 days, showing even more complexity and a very expressive character, wow!

Tasting Profile

Palate
A deeply layered, richly complex and viscerally delicious wine. Saline character like a salty margarita on your lips, fresh baked brioche, grapefruit skin, yellow peach, river stone. Structured, sumptuous, textural and impossibly long.
