Our Story

Lynn Fritz first purchased Quail Hill Ranch and Vineyards in 1980, drawn to the maritime climate and the authenticity of the rolling Russian River vineyards. The property has some of the oldest Pinot Noir and Chardonnay vines planted in the Russian River Valley. The grapes from these early vines were bought by Tony Soter and Merry Edwards to make wines considered to be some of the best in the Russian River Valley. Lynmar began a modest winemaking activity in the early 1990s and produced small amounts of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, which were extremely well received. Over the next 35 years, Lynn purchased several contiguous properties, which have been amalgamated into a single stunning estate bordered by the Laguna de Santa Rosa watershed.

Lynn and Anisya Fritz now live on and oversee operations at the Quail Hill Estate. Lynmar’s three vineyards encompass fifteen clones of Pinot Noir and 4 clones of Chardonnay, meticulously planted with painstaking efforts to match the best clonal and rootstock material to ideal soil conditions. An array of pruning and spacing methods and block by block sustainable farming by an in-house team combine to yield exquisite fruit with distinct flavor profiles. Lynmar’s state-of-the-art, gravity-flow winery and caves extend the ideal environment for making and aging ultra-premium wine. The Lynmar gardens express the bounty of Sonoma County, providing fruits, vegetables and herbs for meals prepared on site while the gorgeous borders that surround the vineyards attract beneficial insects and hummingbirds, providing a natural barrier from pests.
