Three come to mind right away.

Jesse's Grove - Wonderful Zin
Peirano Estate - Nice Zins
Jewel - Nice value wines esp. Petit Sirah

This Syrah comes from one called Turner Road. I'll let you know what I think once I taste it.

I did just read in two books that the area is best known for producing good Zinfandel.

2003 Turner Road Syrah, from Lodi. Very fruity, tastes like grapes! Under the sweet concord flavor is oak, leather, and the finish is peppery. I don't think I've ever tasted a Syrah so fruity and sweet, but still with an overall dry flavor. Not bad for an $8.99 bottle of wine. BK 88.

I really like Za Zin from Patrick Campbell/Laurel Glen. Made from old vines in Lodi, reasonably priced. Yummy, and shows what Lodi grapes can do in the right hands.
