Abundance Vineyards - With so many to chose from, this is a great Lodi winery! The location and tasting room are beautiful, reminds me of some of the wineries I visited in Tuscany. The staff is very knowledgeable and outgoing. The wines they pour are tasty as well. I especially love their red varieties and sparkling wines. This is a must stop when in Lodi!

Bokisch Vineyards -Their wines are featured at Cellar Door in downtown, Lodi. That place is kinda quiet most times I go there, so probably not the best environment in which to display the wines... However, they are all great wines and the winery owners are very nice, too.

Estate Crush - 2 W. Lockeford - A custom crush winery helping over 60 wineries make quality wine. A stop in their tasting room will surprise you. The wall behind the serving counter displays the many wines they are associated with and you will quickly see that many of the wines including their own labels have won awards at the S.F. Chronicle annual wine competition. Their tasting room is open Friday - Sunday 12:00 to 5 PM. Each month they feature different wines for tasting on their menu. And, don't forget to take a 2nd Saturday wine tour and tasting. At the end of the tour three wines are paired with some delicious cheeses.

M2 Vintners - When it comes to wine tasting in Lodi this is hands down the best (of very many) experiences I've had! The servers are very knowledgeable and was truly into and excited about the wine -- Most places in Lodi are like, "I think you'll really enjoy this next wine...because it's the next on the tasting menu" but this lady knows her stuff!

Oak Ridge Winery - The room where you can have your ceremony and reception is in a large building that used to be their whiskey barrel room. The walls are lined with old dark wood. The ceilings are tall and have exposed ducting. They have lanterns hanging at different levels through out the room. The walls are lined with amazing old signs and old wine making tools. In the very middle of the room they have built a terrace or balcony with a beautiful spiral staircase. When you are at the top you have a great view of the entire place. I just can't explain in words how beautiful this place is. It puts off this amazing warmth when you are in there. I just love love love it!

Pondl Winery - The place doesn't look like much from the outside but I love this place. The wine is excellent. The two men that own it are great and their wines are really good for how "new" they are. People talk down at Roses, but their Pinup wine is so delicious. Try it, promise tonight disappoint.
