Producer Information

Oak Farm Vineyards, located in Lodi, California, sits at the heart of the historic DeVries estate with its centuries-old, majestic oak trees. The property, located on the Mokelumne River in northern Lodi, was the original homestead of William DeVries. DeVries left Baltimore in 1853 at to search for gold in California but instead made his fortune by selling provisions to other prospectors. He bought the property in 1860, and when DeVries began farming it, he insisted that the ancient oaks be left standing rather than cut down for easier planting of crops as was common in the 1800’s. As a result, the estate became known in the community as Oak Farm. The Panella family assumed stewardship of Oak Farm in 2004. They meticulously restored the grounds and the colonial mansion to its original glory. Dan & Heather Panella and their four children now make it their home Lodi is widely admired for its generational history, and Oak Farm Vineyards, above all, is about family. In addition to Dan and Heather who run the day to day operations, visitors will usually find Dorothy Panella, Dan’s mother and Panella clan matriarch, onsite helping in various aspects of the business. Dan’s father runs Panella Trucking, a company initially created when it became difficult to find reliable transportation to get Lodi crops to market. Dan’s wife Heather is a landscape designer and helped to create the look of the property today. Like grape growing and winemaking, family ties are important in Lodi, and Oak Farm Vineyards proudly carries on the family tradition as a third generation California farmer, Dan has always had a passion for agriculture. He acquired his first taste for farming while driving a tractor in his family’s cherry and walnut orchards. It was a natural progression for Dan to move from the orchards into vineyards. Because of his background, Dan was led to a detailed approach to vineyard planting and winemaking, always focused on capturing the Lodi sense of place.
