Cloud is new to the wine industry, however was former college roommates with our winemaker Edward. He was able to see Edward early on in his career and witnessed a few fermentations on their apartment patio closet. Years later Cloud got the winemaking itch and decided to move to Paso Robles to learn the ins and outs of the wine industry. We look forward to having Cloud as a part of the LDT family.
