A Volcanic Vineyard
Eons of tectonic activity have shaped the Napa hills, and their rare soil gives shape to these unique wines. Carved into an east-facing slope overlooking Lake Hennessey, IX Estate wines are as dark and intense as the activity which molded the land.
“The IX Estate is as close to a viticultural nirvana as I have ever seen.”
