    Justerini & Brooks Tasting note

    Open, pretty and delicate with a spectrum of ripe aromatic fruits; raspberry, strawberries, cherries and fine earth, with a fresh, concentrated feel and finessed tannins. Not simple yet so inviting and delicious! Aged for a year in roughly a third new French oak. Vrede is a north-east facing slope in the lower Hemel-en-Aarde Valley, the soils are predominantly stony, clay-rich Bokkeveld shale bringing texture and complexity.

    Neal Martin,
    Vinous
    The 2022 Pinot Noir Vrede includes 15% whole bunch and matured for 11 months in French oak barrels, 35% new. The aromatics needed a little coaxing from the glass, revealing brambly red berry fruit intermixed with briar and light sous bois scents. The palate is medium-bodied with a brisk, peppery opening, a noticeable marine element and a linear, strict finish. This is very fine, but it will need a couple of years in bottle; of the three Pinot cuvées from Storm, this improves the most in the glass.
