    Will Berliner - #013

    This Episode is brought to you by Unreal Wine Club. Get the juice from the Real Wine People guests. Will Berliner is the founder, grower and winemaker at Cloudburst Wines.  A small close planted, chemical free vineyard in Wilyabrup, Margaret River.  Cloudburst sent shockwaves through the local industry in 2013 when it took a clean sweep of all trophies at the Margaret River Wine show.  Not only was Cloudburst unheard of locally, but the wines sold out to New Yorks top restaurants at a record price, and wasn't even available for purchase in Australia.

    Real Wine People Jasper Button #010

    Jasper Button returned home from travelling and surfing the world, along with his sister Sophie, to help out at their family vineyard, planted over two decades ago by their mother. They began restoring the site and moving to organic and biodynamic farming. Then started making wines rather than sell off their grapes.  The wines are made naturally with only minimal sulphur additions and cool, slow and gentle ferments.
