If you are Pinot Noir enthusiast and you have yet to fill your cellar with some wines from Jesse Lange, then you are making a large mistake. For the last 15 years, no one has made as consistently exciting and elegant Pinot Noirs anywhere in the Willamette Valley.
Jesse has achieved everything one possibly could while at his family’s winery. He’s been on the cover of wine magazines, has been recognized as a Rising Star in American Pinot Noir and most recently was recognized as Winemaker of the Year at the 2022 Oregon Wine Awards.
If you’ve met Jesse (which I have), he is the last one to beat his chest and say look at me. Instead, the laid-back winemaker rather stay out of the light and go fly fishing as much as possible when not at the winery. But considering the guy happens to look a little bit like a movie star and makes exceptional wines, plenty of people are always looking.
His ‘Classique’ Pinot Noir is one of the very best Willamette Valley bottlings that you’re going to find anywhere. I have it on the same level as the likes of Bergstrom, Patricia Green, Lemelson and Ken Wright. He makes his wine utilizing his three estate vineyards all within the coveted Dundee HIlls appellation. Here, the rustic volcanic soils formed more than 14 million years ago, helps create some of the most expressive, elegant Pinot Noir in the world.
The 2022 vintage is a standout, with critics and wine enthusiasts alike praising its complexity and balance. On the nose, expect to find inviting aromas of red berries, floral notes, and a hint of spice, while the palate is greeted with flavors of ripe cherry, raspberry, and a touch of earthiness. The wine’s silky-smooth texture and vibrant acidity make it a joy to drink, with a long, lingering finish that will leave you craving more.

A melange of bright berries mingles with perfectly paired spice in this fresh and zesty Willamette Valley blend from Lange. The palate offers mouthfuls of bright cranberries, blood orange zest and candied raspberry flavours. A savoury freshness follows with fresh wintergreen and white pepper—an alluring wine of freshness and verve with a laser-focused minerality and bright acid lift.
Anne Sery describes her Trousse Chemise Cabernets as an ode to the Left Bank and her winemaking roots. It’s a beautiful and fresh Cabernet with aromas that leap from the glass with of black raspberry, violets, and creme de liquor notes. The mouth gives generous amounts of juicy black fruits at the core with hints of baking spice and a smooth, savory finish. This is a terrific partner for just about anything from hard cheese, to poultry, summer salads, you name it!
It’s no surprise the Wine Advocate has called the Ventoux a “screaming bargain.” Carved off the left bank of the Rhone River, the 2020 Delas Ventoux is a gorgeous medium-bodied wine with wonderful crushed red fruits, a silky mouthfeel, tremendous structure and that signature Rhone spice on the finish. I haven’t had this wine available for a few vintages, but I figure it’s the perfect springtime Red to bring back in the fold!
The 2021 Napa Valley East side Cuvee is an instant classic. From the first whiff to the moment it hits the lips, its clear that this is a fabulously concentrated, serious wine: black in color, and featuring aromas of cassis, cedar and chocolate-tinged purple fruit. The mouthfeel is plush and voluptuous with a firm, solid finish that speaks to its potential for considerable aging.

Always the one with the most personality of the bunch, this is what Wine Enthusiast had to say about the 2021 release: “This extremely ripe and bold style of Pinot Noir will please those seeking such lushness. Dark in the glass, it begins with black cherry, toasty caramel and cola milk shake aromas.” The cool, coastal days and abundance of sunshine lines up perfectly for a wine that has a good natural acidic backbone, with bold fruit-forward flavors. In an easy 2021 vintage, Joe Wagner had a field day with this single-vineyard beauty.
