Stormflower Vineyard

A wine adventure from the incredible Wilyabrup pocket of the Margaret River region. Stormflower is all about producing the best wine we can from our small block, with all wines made at our small onsite winery, only with fruit from our vineyard. Sustainable farming is an integral part of the Stormflower philosophy, and we pay great attention to the health of the soil which results in a vineyard that is a healthy, biodiverse and resilient system. We are proudly certified organic, achieving full certification in November 2016. We aim to produce wine that is a unique expression of the site and not necessarily the regional style, allowing the fruit to express itself. We pay particular attention to create wines that have good palate weight, smooth textured mouthfeel, good fruit flavours and aromas and a clean dry finish. Our wines can be enjoyed by themselves, but the aim is to make wine that is geared mainly around food, so structure and texture are critical.

Our minimalist, sustainable philosophy is reflected in our cellar door. A relaxed, understated, natural space in which to sit back and enjoy our wines and our surroundings. Our tasting table and our sales counter are made from one of the Marri trees that blew down outside the cellar door during a storm in 2013. Our cellar door has been set up to taste our wines as we like to enjoy them, sitting at a table or in a comfortable chair in an environment that is cosy, welcoming, and unhurried. We welcome all visitors to explore our wines, our cellar door and our gardens. Our cellar door team are passionate about our wines and wine making philosophy and will guide you through your tasting. As well as many of the standard Margaret River varietals we have our popular Crémant, Pet Nat and Rose available for tasting (unless sold out!). Our gardens are perfect for a picnic (rugs provided by us), and to enjoy a glass of wine and some fine cheese and charcuterie from our decadent pantry packed full of imported European cheese and Australian and European salumi, along with our house made grape chutney, olives and obatzda.

We are family friendly with a change table and few bits and bobs to entertain the kids, and welcome your four legged family as well
