So as promised - second tasting within 2 weeks. Ernst Storm told me this wine is from young vines on clay soil. Dark cherries, minerals, hint black tea, surprisingly complex. I will keep an eye on this Vineyard. It shows great promise!

# 2 of the Pinot tasting by Storm - this is great!!! Bright Cherry mostly crushed stones. I will buy this and then retest.

Explosion of fruit and spice on the nose. Also some flowers. The palate is much more savory with cherries, flowers, some baking spice, but much more forest floor than on the nose. Really great. Can’t wait to see how this evolves.

Outstanding! Wonderful nose of dark fruits, baking spices. Palate is plums, tannins, baking spice. Just wonderful right now.
