Storm Wines Ridge Pinot Noir

‘Ridge is often the most backward of Hannes Storm’s trio of remarkable single vineyard Pinot Noirs, sourced from an east-facing, high-density planting at 330 metres at La Vierge on the Hemel-en-Aarde Ridge. Plum, black cherry and a hint of graphite are underpinned by plenty of grip, backbone and intensity. One to tuck away for a while. 2024-32’ – Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2023, 96/100

‘Clay -rich, low-crop Hemel-en-Aarde Ridge soil dictates style, vivid red berries & cherries, texture lithe, with tannin edge for food & some ageing. Savoury interplay from the oaking, but done with restraint, balance maintained. Like this range, not showy but nothing lacking, has complexity & admirable class. Also in 1.5L, as all.’ – Platter’s Guide, 4*(94/100)
