LODI “Just about a year ago
I set out on the road
Seekin' my fame and fortune
Lookin' for a pot of gold"
Many Danes probably first of all remember Lodi from Creedence Clearwater's immortal hit; ” from 1969.
The Lodi wine area itself, lies approx. San Francisco area and the foothills of the Sierra Nevada mountains. The climate is Mediterranean with warm days and cool nights. The soil is quite sandy in the middle part, while the outermost areas are more gravelly. Especially Zinfandel is very well known from here, and the vines in Lodi are toad-old! Some producers have canes that are well over 100 years old. Also chardonnay and cab. Sauvignon gives really good results. In total, there are currently planted approx. 42,000 ha with grapes.
