Featured Facility Expansion Project: Michael David Winery, Lodi, CA
Michael David Winery is a family owned and run winery that has been cultivating the landing in Lodi, CA since the 1850’s. The family began growing wine grapes in the early 1900’s, and today Michael David Winery produces over 700,000 cases of wine annually with nothing but production increases on the horizon.
FDC is proud to have been chosen by a leading winemaker such as Michael David Winery to undertake the expansion of their existing facility.
Most recently our expert build team constructed a 2 million gallon raised tank farm to house their wine for aging.
We completed the addition of a new fruit receiving facility on their Lodi property, which included two truck lanes for processing both red and white grapes, a new refrigeration plant, and additional presses.
Our past expansion projects for the Micheal David Winery also included the completion of a 10,000 square foot production office building, putting their facility at a total of 35,000 square feet of production space.
