Tasting Note

A cooler expression of red and black fruit brings with it a spicy graphite note that lends complexity and a sense of maturity, but with a stony, crisp acidity and rounded, beautifully balanced fruit.

Product Notes

Storm Wines Ridge Pinot Noir is a red wine made from carefully selected grapes grown in the Santa Maria Valley in California. This Pinot Noir is a beautiful representation of the region's unique climate and soil, with characteristics of dark berry fruit, spicy earthy tones, and a delicate floral essence. The grapes are handpicked at optimal ripeness for an elegant wine, fermented in open-top tanks and aged for 12 months in French oak barrels. The result is a full-bodied wine with a smooth mouthfeel and balanced acidity, making it an excellent pairing for grilled salmon or roasted pork. This wine is a true representation of the winemaker's dedication and passion for producing high-quality Pinot Noir.

About the Winery

Storm Wines

The history and story of Strom Wines begin with that of its founder, Hannes Storm. Hannes worked intimately and with dedication in the vineyards of the Hemel-en-Aarde Valley or ‘Heaven-and-Earth’ in South Africa. Initially, he handled, planted, and cultivated two varieties of grapevines. They consisted of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. His ventures and work in this line allowed Hannes to discover and locate two tiny yet exceptional parcels in the area. They featured high-quality terroirs and excellent climatic and soil conditions for the growth of vines. It consisted of the beneficial influence from the Atlantic Ocean and the overall moderate weather. It motivated Hannes to produce his distinct wines.
