"After several minutes in glass -  aromas of mineral soil and berries, savoury and spice with a fine oak, flowers and a sense of place begin to unfurl. On the palate the wine comes alive with flavours of strawberry and red cherry, dark rose and red apple, limestone and clay, red flowers and baking spices of oak. Complex, tense and young with firm chalky textured tannins, medium+ acidity and  flavours that linger for minutes. Delicious, but needs cellar time to complete the harmonious  links that have  begun. Best drinking from late 2022 through 2028+" Cameron Douglas, Master, Jun 2021

"The 2019 Damsteep Pinot Noir features aromas that mix wintergreen, raspberries, roses and tea leaves. Complex and perfumed, it's medium-bodied and crisp on the palate, marked by firm tannins and dusty astringency on the mouthwatering finish. Give it another couple of years to mellow, then drink it over the next six or seven" Nick Stock, James Suckling

Deep Ruby hue. Fragrant aromas of wild raspberry, blackberry, sandalwood, vanilla and sea spray. Flavours of silken and bright wild forest fruits, graphite, dark coco powder and cola. Supple and elastic mid pallet tannins that are contained with bright and pure minerality. Typical white rock tension creates a long and vibrant finish.

This is an unfined and unfiltered wine with small amounts of sediment. Please allow the bottle to stand and settle before pouring. Decanting will allow maximum expression of aroma and purity of fruit to emerge.

The Damsteep Vineyard is located in the north east of Waipara Valley at the foot of the Omihi Saddle in North Canterbury. This Pinot Noir is grown on a 5.5 hectare vineyard with 9 different parcels of various north-east, north, and north-west facing slopes, with an altitude between 140 to 180 meters above sea level. The vines here were planted in 2000 and grow on clay overlying fractured limestone and sandstone soils. Organic and biodynamic farming practices have been used since 2012. The Damsteep Vineyard has been fully certified organic with BioGro since March 2017.

Early spring rainfall and moderate temperatures meant vines grew evenly though out our vineyards from around the spring equinox in late September. Night time temperatures remained above zero preventing frost damage for the third spring in a row. Rapid growth kept our vineyard team busy with shoot thinning, cultivation, and organic spray rounds with short intervals. Cool wet weather through flowering at the end of November effected flowering and fruit set. By the summer solstice in late December it was clear that yields would be low and bunch and berry size would be small. Warm dry conditions in January and February slowed vegetative growth and ripened fruit. Settled conditions in March allowed an early start to harvest where hand harvested fruit was ripe and clean with low disease pressure and optimal ripeness. While yields were very low quality across all varieties was exceptional.

73% De-stemmed, not crushed, 80% Whole berries. 4 days cold soak at ambient temperature. Yeast for fermentation was propagated from a vineyard starter. Fermentation lasted 10 to 12 days with hand or foot plunging one to 2 times per day. Pressed after 28 days on skins and drained to tight grained French barrels 3 to 10 years old. Malo-lactic fermentation was completed in spring. 12 months barrel maturation, then racked to stainless steel tank where the wine settled for 5 months. Bottled without fining or filtration. Sulphites added.

Food Pairing: Perfect with baked salmon and roasted vegetables.

Like Steve McQueen, all I need's a fast machine...
Size: Medium, Color: Vintage Indigo
I was very impressed by the quality of the Vintage Indigo (distressed) jacket I received. Much heavier denim than Levi's, rugged stitching, classic fit that is also much better than the relaxed Levi's available on Amazon. The inside pockets are generous and sturdy but have no closure flap so if you bent over enough I suppose things could fall out. This jacket is pretty bombproof if you ask me and at half the price of Levi's. I only wish that they made this in size small, which I can't find anywhere. I am 5'9" and 170 lbs, athletic build. I like a high and tight fit on these like Steve McQueen would have rocked, the shoulders and sleeves on this medium size are a bit oversized, the body is just a tad more relaxed and longer than I would like. Most guys would probably be very pleased with this medium. It would work very well over sweaters and such. Update: I ordered the Lee Boss Man vintage style jacket in Medium, it's much tighter fitting than this Wrangler and the vintage wash is much more convincing. The Lee is a much trimmer fit, tight across the shoulders and through the sleeves, slim on the body. It's more the Steve McQueen look I was searching for so it's a keeper. No room for sweaters under the Lee and the denim is much lighter weight than the Wrangler. Lee's the one for me. This Wrangler is very good quality but not quite the fit for me so it goes back. Thankfully Amazon makes returns free and easy so you can try every brand.

Size & fit great
Size: Large, Color: Vintage Indigo
The fit of the jean jacket was as described. I did order a large. I am 5'11'' The sleeves were Not long they were the proper length and came to my wrist as they should have. The color was a little darker than the picture but still a nice washed-out blue. Looking forward to years of wearing this jacket. The jacket is high quality with excellent stitching. I am a consumer and was not compensated for this review.

Runs a little large
Size: X-Large Tall, Color: Antique Indigo
Awesome jacket! I am a vintage Lee Rider jacket man since high school. All Made in USA from denim Made in USA. Oldest from High School. Think I bought a Wrangler jacket once and it was not fitted like a Rider, boxy and baggy. Returned it. Wanted to try a Wrangler or Levi jacket after wearing Lee jackets for over 50 years. Modern Lee are Lee by name. After reading a 100 reviews the Wrangler reviews were consistent. The Levi reviews were all over the place, small, large, thin, thick, all cotton, stretch, made no telling where. Ordered this jacket. Ordered a XL Tall. Usually wear a XXL. But running large was a consistent comment. Sized to fit a hoodie under. Built odd, 48 jacket, 37 shirt sleeves, 36 pants are loose fit. The sized down jacket fits a little loose. May shrink down a little, washed twice yesterday. But like all Bangladesh made clothes I have owned the quality is equal to my 70’s, 80’s, and 90’s Made in USA Lee Rider jackets. The denim is top quality, the stitching is even and well done. Not as slick as my Diamond Gusset denim jacket on finishing inside, think 700.00 suit coat quality, but equal to any of my five Lee jackets. This is a Tough Wear and not an Italian suit coat. Living in Houston we only see a month or two of jacket weather a year. Wearing shorts and tee shirt today. So stores do not stock year round. Amazon was a gamble on size and quality. Looked before ordering, no stores had jackets in stock after first of the year to try size and fit. I got lucky. Fit like a XXL Lee Rider or Diamond Gusset. Quality of denim and construction are top notch. Much recommended, just order down on size if you are borderline on sizes.

The jacket you'll love forever. . .
Size: X-Large Tall, Color: Vintage Indigo
Absolutely love this jacket! Very well made. Thick material. May not be the summer jacket, but still a great jacket for when it's just a little cool to go w/o something. And, WOW, does it look great!
