What a great find this winery was! I visited the Lodi Wine & Visitor Center, and told them I was interested in old vine Zinfandels. When I told them I was looking for some old vines to get photos of, they recommended that I visit Lucas Winery, and they were so right! A beautiful location, lovely staff, and Zin Star Vines established in 1933. I also loved the wall of different soils, and they had a great assortment to taste. Wineries like this are what will bring me back asap - great wines, great hospitality with lots to see and do.
Went for a friend’s birthday on a Friday afternoon and the vineyard was gorgeous. They are a boutique winery who will take you out to see the old vines and barrel room throughout your tasting and tell you about their winemaking process which was a fun experience. Glo and another gentleman were friendly & knowledgeable! Definitely recommend. Also, Im not a Chardonnay fan but their Chardonnay was divine! Definitely worth a try :)
A Must-Visit in Lodi! My recent visit to Lucas Winery in Lodi was a truly exceptional experience! This multigenerational, family-owned boutique winery and tasting room is everything you look for: welcoming, friendly, and dedicated to crafting high-quality, memorable wines. The history here is incredible. They grow grapes from old-growth vines planted as far back as the 1920s, and you can taste the quality and tradition in every glass. Their commitment to excellence is clear, especially since all their grapes are still hand-picked. We loved seeing the ZinStar vineyard sign, established in 1933! A big shout-out to Noah, who made our visit even better with his knowledge and hospitality. If you go, I highly recommend trying their Cinsault—it was a standout! If you're looking for a special winery experience in Lodi, Lucas Winery is a must-stop.
If you’re looking for a winery where the wine’s amazing and the staff makes you feel right at home, this is the spot. We’d heard good things, but it totally exceeded our expectations. Our wine host, Fátima, was awesome! super knowledgeable and passionate about what she does. We’ll definitely be back and telling all our friends to stop by!
I now understand why they have a 5 star rating. Their wines are so different from the others in this area. They have made their Zinfandel a super star wine. The service is first rate and the atmosphere is delightful. Cheers 🥂
