My favorite place for a unique Friday night. I got to know them during Lodi wine and chocolate festival and came back for family night and adult night. They also do goat yoga, yet to experience for me. During family night you get to spend time cuddling baby goats and the night ends with milk and cookies 🍪 Adult night comes with small bites and wine tasting. It’s such a fun time, I keep coming back. See calendar on their website for the next events

Some of the best goat cheese I've ever had, and the service was super friendly. But don't bother with the wine, it's crap.

What a fun place recommended in yelp and Google. They have delightful winery and cheese pairings. Skip the blue lake winery as they don't really help customers experience tastings and they lie about review comments. Try out Spenker for a fun time with sweet staff, silly goats, and yummy tastings.

What a great place! Yummy cheese, lovely service and a sweet dog named Houston as a greeter!

As someone who's worked with goats for most of my life, I can confidently say that these are some healthy and happy goats. Lots and love and care is given to each goat, and their well being is taken very seriously. Each one is individually observed for potential health or behavior problems, and even their individual grain intake during milking is adjusted for things like their weight or if they need additional dietary supplements. I know first hand what a bad dairy looks like. This is not one of them.

We were tired from the long drive to Lodi, so this was a great first stop in terms of relaxing surroundings. The goat cheese flight was fantastic and we bought several (be sure to ask for the mini-cooler and ice pack for $8). However, the wine was near the bottom of the list compared to all of the other places in Lodi. The goats were cute, but there's no real interaction with them and the grounds are fly-blown as you'd expect from a farm. Totally worth the stop for the cheese though.

Love the goats and cheese! For the Designated Drivers you can do just a cheese tasting...

The Spenker Family Farm is welcoming to people of all ages. Goats are bred and raised here, with a creamery to produce goat cheese. Grapes are grown, and with that comes the wine to accompany the cheese. Nearby are the chickens for those farm fresh eggs. You might get a chance to meet Houston, the livestock guardian who is an Anatolian Shepard and towers above the Nubian goats. There are many events to interact with the goats through the spring and summer. And let us not forget the humans too, everyone is friendly and a wealth of knowledge for those who come with questions.

This winery and goat farm is so cute and the people who run it are so sweet and friendly. We had a great time petting the goats, then went into the winery for wine and cheese tasting. Their wines and goat cheeses are delicious along with their jams. I left with a bottle of wine, 4 flavors of cheese and 2 jams that paired well with the cheeses. If you haven't been to this beautiful winery in Lodi, CA, you're missing a very fun time.

The wine and cheese pairing were delicious. The staff was excellent and friendly. We watched the goats playing with each other
They were very busy when we visited, and it was an especially blustery day. Sitting outside was not an option. It’s a small, family owned operation, but what makes it unique to other local wineries is the goats and freshly made goat cheeses. We enjoyed the wine and cheese pairing. We left with a Moscato and two chèvre cheeses: a dill and a chocolate cheese. I wanted to smuggle a baby goat home in my purse!

Absolutely amazing! One thing that sets it aside from other wineries is their wine + goat cheese flights. Their staff was extremely friendly and let us pet the animals. 10/10 recommend! Definitely check it out if you’re in Lodi! ?

The baby goats from March - June are the best! The zin is delicious as are most of the cheeses! The family that runs this place are some of the most friendliest people I've come across. A great Lodi gem and fun for the WHOLE family
