Feb 21st, 2020Early in his career, Ernst Storm worked alongside his brother Hannes, who is also a winemaker, eventually leaving South Africa to pursue his career in California, and forming Storm Wines. Aromas of tart fruits, herbs and spices. On the palate cranberry and raspberry with herb mineral notes. Firm gripping tannins, lingering finish ending with earthy characteristics.

Dec 22nd, 2017An amazing vintage of this Pinot, ripe raspberry and blackberry fruit with incredible, savory umami flavors throughout. A near perfect expression of what single vineyard Santa Rita. Hills has to offer.

Nov 17th, 2023Well made pinot. Fruit driven with raspberries and cherries. There’s some floral notes, a hint of flint or stone, baking spice maybe clove more than others. Just wonderful. The finish lingers with like raspberry jam and spice.
