Lynmar Estate is a preeminent winery in the famed Russian River Valley AVA in Sonoma County, California. Situated on a stunning 100-acre estate with lush English gardens, Lynmar is supremely focused on quality in everything they do, expressing a total commitment to excellence in the vineyard, in their winemaking and in their hospitality. As a result, Lynmar consistently handcrafts some of the most highly acclaimed, top-rated Pinot Noir and Chardonnay in the U.S., regularly earning 90+ scores from Wine Spectator and Wine Enthusiast, along with other wine publications.

The Russian River Valley offers an ideal climate for Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, with maritime influence from the nearby Pacific Ocean giving way to cool nights, late morning fog and warm coastal summer days. This provides the grapes with optimal growing conditions for perfectly even ripening, refreshing acidity and concentrated flavors. Lynmar’s estate vineyards are home to some of the oldest vines in the region. They contain 14 Pinot Noir and 4 Chardonnay clones, diverse terrain and soil types, plus an array of canopy and rootstock combinations – all contributing to exquisite fruit with varying flavor profiles.

Lynmar maintains an in-house farming team year-round – an increasingly rare arrangement in modern winegrowing. Utilizing meticulous farming techniques, Lynmar is a leader in sustainability, seeking to achieve harmony and balance in the vineyard. Lynmar’s approach to winemaking is also unique. Their state-of-the-art, multilevel, gravity-flow winery allows the gentlest treatment of the grapes, and wines are aged in the naturally cool, 9000-square-foot cave.

At Lynmar, the underlying theory in everything they do is that the whole must be greater than the sum of its parts. Proprietors Lynn and Anisya Fritz take great pride in their property, their process, their product and their world-class team, and the results speak for themselves. Come join us and experience one of California’s premier wineries!
