Storm Wines

Winemaker Hannes Storm worked 12 vintages in the Hemel-en-Aarde Valley before discovering two parcels of land with exceptional terroir and embarking on his eponymous project, Storm Wines. His aspiration is clear: to create wines with a sense of place. His natural approach and careful viticulture produce classically proportioned wines with distinctive personalities and innate purity.

Learn more about Storm Wines

Storm focuses on Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Located in the Hemel-en-Aarde Valley and Upper Hemel-en-Aarde Valley, their three vineyard sites – Ignis, Vrede and Ridge – each possess an individual character. Storm Wines is now the only producer with Pinot Noirs from each Hemel-en-Aarde appellation. 

The Ignis vineyard is located on a northern slope in the Upper Hemel-en-Aarde Valley. The vineyard is cluttered with round pebbles on the soil surface, with underlying decomposed granite. The Ridge and Vrede sites rest on a cool, eastern slope in the Hemel-en-Aarde Ridge. They have low-vigour, stony, clay-rich Bokkeveld shale soils and a cool Atlantic Ocean influence, producing wines with high natural acidity and minerality.
