Critics Ratings

'Another stunning Pinot from Hannes Storm, who makes some of the best examples of the grape in the Cape. This is on shale-derived clay and has produced a wonderfully aromatic red in 2017: lifted, floral and serene with fine tannins, supple red berry fruit and some tannic support. 2019-25.' - Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2018, 95/100

'A subtle touch of oak gently perched on top of juicy strawberry and cherry fruit, waiting to integrate. Finesse and complexity on the classy 2017 that has layers of flavour unfolding in the glass. The 2017 is getting better, patience will be awarded.' - Higgo Jacobs (Feb 2022)

'Very pale ruby. Marked, bright fruit and floral aromatics, yet with a savoury, spice and flint undertow. Juicy, vibrant and delicate yet structured. Lovely length.' - Tim Jackson MW, JancisRobinson.com, 17.5/20 (Dec 2019)

'Hallmark fruity-savoury persistence, brooding intensity from bouquet to finish on Hemel-en-Aarde Valley offering. Compact body, latent power from clay-rich, low-vigour Bokkeveld soil most noticeable on 2017. Deserves 5+ years cellaring to deliver on potential. New oak 28%. Also in 1.5L. Natural ferment, as all the wines; unfined/filtered as all reds.' - Platter's SA Wine Guide 2020, 4.5* (94/100)
