A little-known local winery upstaged a number of big name estates to dominate the Margaret River Wine Show last month.

Cloudburst Wine took out the show’s Best Single Vineyard Estate Red Wine, Best Red Wine of the show and Best Cabernet Sauvignon.

MRWA president Nigel Gallop said the Caves Road winery’s triumph was representative of Margaret River’s winemaking depth.

“They’re a very small producer … but they produced an outstanding wine that won three trophies,” he said.

“It’s quite an outstanding result given it was up against some serious competition.

“To have such a small winery make wines that are world class is incredible.”
