Lynmar WineryDiligence and balance, in every aspect of the winemaking process, are the keys to making world class Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from our 42-acre estate vineyard. Our techniques are not revolutionary or ground breaking. They are, however, researched and carefully implemented from vineyard to finished wine. At Lynmar, winemaking begins in the vineyard where the winemaker works closely with the vineyard team. They begin by developing healthy, balanced vineyards with soils alive with nutrients. Then we choose the right clones and selections, vine spacing and trellising for our site. The vineyards are pruned and maintained throughout the growing year by a skilled crew who balance and thin the crop to the highest standards. Once ripe, the fruit is hand picked early in the morning into small 35 pound lug boxes ensuring the grapes are delivered undamaged to the winery. The grapes are brought to the winery while they are still cool before the essential flavors and aromas are disrupted and lost to heat.
Director of Winemaking Hugh Chappelle brings
more than 12 years of winemaking experience in Napa, Sonoma and the
Sierra Foothills to Lynmar Winery. Chappelle's wines are known for
their balance and expression of terrior; two qualities which are
important to his winemaking philosophy and the future of Lynmar
Winery.
