The Paskett Family has deep roots in Lodi wine country. We have been tending to our small vineyards for more than half a century, and making wonderful wines along the way. Excellent wines start in the vineyard and are borne from decades of commitment to excellent farming and a passion for fine wines.
For the past 50 years, several generations of Paskett winemakers and our community of friends and fellow wine enthusiasts practiced our vinification skills at our family's vineyard in west Lodi. Today, our estate vineyards are located on different blocks in Mokelumne River sub AVA in Lodi. All small fields were carefully chosen for their rich sandy loam soil and close proximity to the beautiful river that defines our wine grape region.

The winery is owned by Lorraine Paskett, who was raised in Lodi on the Cabernet Sauvignon vineyard that is the centerpiece of the winery. Lorraine's dad, Herb Paskett, provides strategic advice for farming, winemaking and varietal selection. He has been farming their vineyards and other crops for 50 years.
Paskett Vineyards & Winery is dedicated to producing premium, specialized wines from our estate vineyards in Lodi. We grow Cabernet Sauvignon, Zinfandel, Cabernet Franc and Charbono. Each year, we also carefully select small vineyards in Lodi that produce exceptional fruit and incorporate these single vineyard offerings into our wine program, including Barbera, Malbec, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot, Syrah, Verdelho, Viognier, and Chenin Blanc.
2018 Cabernet Franc: (new French oak barrels) *NEW* This is the first year that we vinted a Cabernet Franc and the first year we added this Bordeaux-born varietal to our "Merveillueux" Bordeaux-style red blend. Smooth, rich, dark berry flavors. Fruit from Tom Hoffman's Cabernet Franc small vineyard block in Mokelumne River AVA.

We had a great time at Paskett! Relaxing tasting experience with plenty of room to enjoy their grounds. The service was friendly and the wines tasty! The tasting room was closed temporarily when we visited but I’d image they will have indoor pouring back up soon. I’d recommend adding a stop here on your next wine tasting adventure.

This place is amazing. The outdoor area is so peaceful and relaxing, and the wines are good. They serve the tasting portions in actual glasses, unlike many in the area. I really don't enjoy the little plastic cups some places are using for their tastings. I could sit any enjoy this place for most of an afternoon, it's so nice.

Beautiful venue with space for private parties. Knowledgable, friendly staff and incredible wine with a broad depth of varietals.
We had a wonderful time in this space and really appreciated the insight to the wine region through the knowledge of the tasting room staff. This small operation offered a beautiful spread of wines not commonly found in this area.
A real treasure in the Lodi valley, a must visit!

Went for a wine club event. What a wonderful night! Lorraine Paskett, winery owner, is a great hostess. Upon our arrival, we were served a verdelho, crisp, clean, and citrus-y on the palette. Throughout the night, 3 library wines were poured - 2012, 2013, and 2016 Paskett Estate Cabernet Sauvignon. Charcuterie was served, along with a duck confit cassoulet, and a chocolate cake to finish the meal. Everything was delicious! I encourage people to try Paskett wines. What a wonderful winery!

Just when you think you've been to all the wineries in Lodi, signs literally point you to one of the newer ones - Paskett Winery. They are somewhat hidden at the end of Woodbridge Road near the river, but this old facility is worth a visit. You need to use Acampo though since Woodbridge does not go all the way from 99. Parking is paved and decent with good signage from the road.
The tasting room is in the original carriage house made from brick imported from Maine back in the early days of California. This makes for a beautiful tasting room in a great setting. The wine also helps the beauty

So beautiful and cozy. I visited in the late fall.
I really enjoyed the Barbera, a varietal red wine, I believe. The hosts and staff were so hospitable and easy to talk too. The property is in a location that makes you feel far away from everything. I plan on returning in the summer to see what it is like then.
