Fritz Winery

In the late 1970s, our winemaking facility was built into the side of a picturesque hill atop the northernmost region of the famed Dry Creek Valley. My father, Arthur Fritz, designed the facility with an incredible foresight I am blessed to be in charge of today. We operate with a modern sensibility for efficiency and awareness by utilizing the unique attributes of our subterranean design. We are fortunate that naturally cool temperatures, ideal for winemaking and cellaring, are maintained without any use of expensive or carbon-heavy devices common to most modern wine production! What’s more, as a three-tiered structure, we’re able to further cut down on energy usage by capitalizing on the always plentiful presence of gravity.
