Deb and Tom Mortimer founded Jolete Wines.

Jolete

September 18, 2024

It is hard to keep track of the never-ending range of new Oregon wineries. A new Oregon winery by the producers of Le Cadeau, Jolete makes a range of Pinot Noirs and even a Washington Cabernet. Joleté is owned and operated by Le Cadeau Vineyard and can be tasted in the Le Cadeau tasting room in Dundee, Oregon. For an inaugural release, the wines were seriously good. I loved the 2022 Jolete ‘Le Verre Cuvee’ Pinot Noir (OB, 92) which is elegant and soft with a beautiful texture. Learn more at joletewines.com and here are my reviews of the new Jolete wines.

2022 Jolete ‘Le Verre Cuvee’ Pinot Noir- The 2022 Jolete ‘Le Verre Cuvee’ Pinot Noir delivers white truffle and orange peel on the nos alongside lush red fruits. The palate is soft and elegant with a smooth texture, showing ripe red raspberry and Yakima cherry fruit flavors. Drink 2024-2032- 92

2022 Jolete ‘Willamette Valley’ Pinot Noir- The 2022 ‘Willamette Valley’ Pinot Noir shows a beautiful range of red fruits alongside orange peel and salty soils on the palate. Medium-bodied, enjoy now and over the next few years. Drink 2024-2030- 91

2022 Jolete ‘Phinny Hill Vineyard’ Cabernet Sauvignon- Inky in the glass, the 2022 ‘Phinny Hill Vineyard’ offers a smooth texture with dense dark fruits that mingle well with coffee grounds, sea salt and shades of creme de violette. Drink 2024-2036- 92
