Tasting fees are climbing everywhere, and Lodi is no exception. But across the 43 wineries in our Lodi catalog, real discounts exist - you just have to know which ones. Here is the short, honest list, backed by what each winery actually offers. For the full national playbook, see our complete wine tasting deals guide.
The tasting pass: the biggest single discount
The largest repeatable discount in Lodi is the Priority Wine Pass: 3 of the 43 wineries in our Lodi catalog are pass partners offering discounted or two-for-one tastings, including Cabana Winery, D'Art Wines, E2 Family Winery. If it saves you even two or three tasting fees, the pass has paid for itself in an afternoon. Code Wino20 takes 20 percent off the pass.
Verified free tastings
1 winery in Lodi carries a verified free or complimentary tasting in our catalog: Cabana Winery. Free tastings cluster at family-run estates that compete on hospitality - arrive with genuine curiosity and leave with a bottle.
The waived-with-purchase rule
The most common discount in wine country is the tasting fee that disappears when you buy bottles. Plenty of wineries honor it without printing it anywhere. Ask before you taste - "is the fee waived with a purchase?" is a completely normal question. If you were buying a bottle anyway, the tasting was free.
The free discounts: sharing and timing
Two discounts cost nothing anywhere: many tasting rooms will split one flight between two people (ask - the worst answer is no), and weekday visits mean longer pours, more attention, and at some wineries lower fees or no reservation requirement.
