We love this winery! The selections are great and well done. Nice tasting room with a variety of gifts available. Nice and knowledgeable staff. Picked up empty wine barrel (hard to find). Would definitely recommend!

Woodbridge Winery is fantastic! The grounds are lovely, and the operation is impeccably clean, and "viewable" by visitors who wish to tour with a guide. The tasting room currently is open 7 days a week, from 10:30am to 4:30pm. Acampo is minutes from Lodi, CA. They host a huge selection of nationally acclaimed wines in many categories: Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Merlot. Chardonnay, Lightly Oaked Chardonnay. Malbec, Merlot, Moscato, Pinot Grigio, Pinot Noir, Riesling, Sauvignon Blanc, White Zinfandel, Zinfandel. My favorite time of year to visit is Spring (usually April-May) when they host the amazing juried national Spring Art Show (sponsored by thel Lodi Community Art Center). There is a Gala Reception "preview" night held on the premises, in one of the beautiful wine storage warehouses (decorated galore). It is a sight to behold, and so much fun! I have taken many out of state houseguests to their tasting room, and my friends always get the royal treatment!At the time I am writing this, the tours occur twice daily (morning and early afternoon, and are $5) and the tasting fee of $5.00 is applied to any bottles of wine, if purchased. The delight is that you can see many active vineyards enroute and on site. A delightful destination!

For a nice break in your day of tasting Lodi wines, I suggest the tour given by the Woodbridge Winery. We walked through the whole complex and our very informative guide explained the whole process and answered all our questions. As a compliment to the tour, I also suggest you rent the movie Somm before going on a tasting trip. It drags a bit at times, but wow--it gives you an appreciation for the passion experts have for wines.

Woodbridge Winery is just outside Lodi. It is definitely worth the time to get to. Take your time and explore this wonderful winery.

Been to Woodbridge Winery a few times because my wife likes their wines. I like their dessert wines. For the moeny, Woodbridge is good enough.

We had gone on a day-long wine (tasting) tour and were disappointed that we did not get to see more of the actual wine making process. The Woodbridge tour let us see just that! We were able to see everything from a truck dumping grapes to the bottling line. Our tour guide and the tasting room staff were friendly and knowledgeable. The tour was just what we were hoping for!

A 90 minute drive from San Francisco, easy route to follow. As we like the Woodbridge wines we get in the UK, we decided to pay the winery a visit. And we had a great time.The staff were extremely welcoming, and as we arrived early, we were ushered into the tasting room for lots of free samples of most of the varieties offered for sale. Make sure you have had something to eat before you arrive, as wine and an empty stomach don't mix, and there is no food available to purchase at the winery.The FREE tour of the winery takes place twice a day, and you get to see all areas, although on Sunday, the bottling plant is closed. The guide is very informative, and it is very interesting to get a perspective of a commercial winery, as opposed to the boutique vineyards in Napa and Sonoma.
