Calivines Winery and Olive Mill

Decided to head out to Lodi and try something new on my day off. I've passed Calivines multiple times and have always had intentions of seeing what it was all about... now I wish it hadn't taken me so long! While not generally big on sparkling, the Blanc de Blancs was among my favorite of the wines I tried. However, it was the popcorn kissed with garlic and basil olive oils that stole the show for me!I also did an olive oil tasting, of which I ended up taking home a bottle of jalapeno garlic olive oil and blood orange balsamic. I'd love to head back out to Calivines on a dry day with a book to enjoy a glass of wine (and popcorn of course!) at their outdoor seating area.

WOW! What a cool spot! I have seen this winery from the freeway for years and never stopped by! Regret! The design of the building is perfect! Love the modern look! Interior is as beautiful as the images show! The service, Jenna, was awesome! She broke it all down perfectly! The wine was good, but it didnt blow us away, but all in all, it was a great time with old friends and we'd go back in a heartbeat! PS. The bathroom experience is sooooo cool! Check it out!

Decent food, average wines.Get ready to pour your own water, set your own plates, and ask for more menus as you will not be given enough menus.Overpriced wine, but the Ancient Vine Zinfindel was good- that's about it.Seasoned winetaster here - so I wont be signing up for an average bottle for nearly 40 bucks nor joining the wineclub to decrease the high prices to above average prices for the wine.This is the first time I noticed the waitress' scent more than that of the wine or the food while winetasting - someone needs to professionally advise her that there is a bit of an unpleasant scent upon he presence.Her customer service was kind.

Celebrated Valentine's Day at Calivines Winery. We booked a reservation online in advance for the wine and food pairing which was $25 each. The food was perfectly matched to the wine we tasted. After the tasting, we ordered the Vincino Chardonnay, charcuterie board and garlic bread. The Chardonnay was sooo crisp and delicious and it went well with the food. We also tried the Jalapeño oil with bread and their hot honey on the almonds were sooo good! Calivines had a variety of wines, honey, olives, and olive oils to purchase and other fun things to shop for. The establishment is really beautiful and modern and the service was great! It's right off the I-5 freeway so you can't miss it! I can't wait to go back and sit outside when the weather is warmer!

We've driven past here everytime we drive down i5 for camping and were glad we finally stopped by. On our first visit we decided to join their wine and oil club. They have an amazing indoor space with member exclusive soace with comfy couches and a fire pit. Their outdoor area is spacious and have live music during the good weather and are always having other amazing events, with a low cost ticket or free for members. They are kid friendly as well. The service is great and everyone working here is knowledgeable of their wine and olive oil and even though it seems like a big industrial looking building, it keeps that family run feel.

Celebrated my birthday at Calivines with wine and olive oil pairing. We made reservations in advance which is required for the food pairing. The tasting room was large and had cute wine theme items to buy and an area you could they their oils. We were poured all four wines and provided the tastings. The sauv blanc was a stand out as well as the Malbec. The pairing was well done and made the experience even more enjoyable. We decided to share a bottle when we finished our tasting and ordered the tzatziki and hummus, both were excellent. We went mid week and the service was a little slow but friendly. Overall we had a lovely time and I'd definitely come back and enjoy their wines and food again!

Beautiful tasting room and nice patio with some yard games to make your afternoon visit fun-filled. We loved the sparkling rose and charcuterie board. Our server was attentive and made sure to stop be frequently to check in. Wasn't a fan of the live music that started just as we left but enjoyed the music selections that were playing prior. We left with a bottle of sparkling and some olive oil. It was a great local place to visit with the in-laws!

A few work friends and I came here to toast to the end of our year. I have driven by Calivines for months but never stopped by. It did not disappoint this afternoon!They have a modern facility that is welcoming and boasts a friendly staff. We ordered a variety of things such as a charcuterie board, pita bread with hummus and chips and salsa along with an avocado spread. All were delicious when paired with a Zinfandel or rose. We even left with a few items to take home - including their exquisite olive oil! I will definitely return for more. Our union discussed hosting some events here in the near future. Thanks, Calivines!

This was a 10/10 experience! MostlyDue to the customer service. All the workers were on point, and very punctual. Now the olive oil was amazing. I loved the jalapeño/garlic flavor oil with bread. AMAZING! I also learned so much. The seating inside could be a better but overall I would come back.

Came here with family on a nice Saturday afternoon for a ladies outing. We set up a reservation a couple days prior and were able to get a seating for 6 inside. They were very accommodating as I initially had a booking outside but I mentioned that I want to be waitlisted inside because we have my grandma with us who was sensitive to heat and lo and behold, I get a call about 2 hours after I placed the booking and was contacted by a representative from Calivines indicating that they can get us seated inside to accommodate my grandma. I thought that was so wonderful and thoughtful of them. Now for the food and service. We all ordered an olive oil tasting and a bottle of Riesling for the table. Each tasting came with 2 olive oils, a balsamic vinegar, and almonds along with focaccia bread for dipping. The oils were very flavorful and definitely tasted how they were described. We also ordered pesto cheesy bread which...not going to lie, tasted like it was microwaved. The bread hardened like a microwaved bread would've so for the price we paid, it was not worth it and would definitely not get it again. The Riesling paired nicely with the oils as it cut through that greasy texture and was refreshing. Overall, the place was clean and the server was great but the service could be better as we never got our waters refilled even once. I think this part is an understaffing problem rather than our server (as she was great!), as she was serving almost all of the indoor tables (which were all pretty full at the time of our visit). I would visit this place again.
