A Volcanic Vineyard

Eons of tectonic activity have shaped the Napa hills, and their rare soil gives shape to these unique wines. Purchased as the ninth parcel in the break-up of a family land grant, IX Estate was carved into an east-facing slope overlooking Lake Hennessey. Wines from IX Estate are as dark and intense as the activity which molded the land.
