For more than 27 years, Dave Jachter owned and operated several successful car dealerships in Oregon. You may recall his tag line “And That’s No Bull!” His innovative approaches and commitment to local communities saw him through a successful career and impressive awards in the auto industry, including Time magazine’s Dealer of the Year nomination. Through those decades, Dave cultivated a passion for wine, and a cellar to match. Dave sold his car businesses recently and decided that, instead of retiring, he would turn to the world of wine. In addition to being a Northwest wine fan, Dave has travelled to France, Italy, and California wine regions, and tasted wines from around the world. He studied at UC Davis, completing a variety of viticultural courses to refine his expertise and he bought a beautiful piece of land. He and his wife, Karen, purchased 120 acres in the Chehalem Mountains AVA in the heart of the Willamette Valley.
For the first four vintages (2019 - 2022), Dave and winemaker Jared sourced fruit from neighboring vineyards with likeminded sustainable and organic farming practices. Dave's first estate vintage from his 17.91 planted acres was in 2023 and he also just finished building a state-of-the-art winery and barrel room set to open Summer 2024.
Perhaps we all can remember exactly when we fell in love with wine. For Dave, his fascination for wine was ignited in 1975. After finishing final college exams, he and a buddy headed to a fine restaurant and asked the waiter to bring to the table a good red wine. “How about a GREAT red wine?” asked the server. It was a Château de Beaucastel, Châteauneuf-du-Pape (often said to be among the greatest wines of France). A passion was born, and Dave was forever hooked on wine! His goal now is to produce the finest quality Oregon wines possible.
Dave will continue his generous work in public service in his new endeavor. He and Karen are firm believers in giving back to the community. Dave and Karen intend to donate a large percentage of all profits from Jachter Family Wines to the local community. Visit Jachter Family Wines website, www.jachterwine.com, to keep up with progress and their grand opening. It will be one to remember, and as Dave would say “And That’s No Bull!”
