  • Goedhuis, November 2021

    In the glass, concentrated fruits quiver under the surface. These smouldering dark fruits are wrapped in savoury herbs, minerals and exotic spice. A wonderfully fragrant style, this 2018 is highly aromatic and captivates the senses. Its seductive blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot delivers a powerful character that totally transfixes with its astounding complexity. It contains a tapestry of flavours: ripe blueberries, red and black currants, mocha, dark Peruvian chocolate and black cherry are woven into umami, truffle, turmeric root, granite and graphite minerals. We love the mouth-watering salinity on the finish and arresting freshness. The multi-faceted textures on the palate are fascinating. Silky smooth yet mouth coating with grainy ripe, sweet tannins that flow into an imposing and powerful structure. The combination makes for an ethereal yet chiselled wine that is truly mesmerising.

    The 2018 IX Estate is dense, powerful and brooding. Inky dark fruit, gravel, smoke, spice infuse the IX Estate with tremendous character. All of the savory intensity that is typical of this site comes through, and yet the richness of the fruit is palpable. Readers will find an exciting, viscerally thrilling wine that hits all the right notes. In 2018, the IX Estate is truly lights out. It is also the darkest and most concentrated of the three Cabernet Sauvignon wines... This is an utterly magnificent set of wines from Colgin. Drink 2024-2043.

  • Wine Advocate, November 2020, Score: 100

    The 2018 IX Estate is a blend of 77% Cabernet Sauvignon, 14% Cabernet Franc, 8% Merlot and 1% Petit Verdot. Very deep purple-black colored, it needs a little coaxing to reveal earth and mineral scents of iron ore, tilled soil, forest floor and truffles with ripe red and black currants, kirsch, Black Forest cake and mulberries plus nuances of tar, lilacs and Sichuan pepper. Full-bodied and built like a brick house, the palate has a rock-solid frame of firm, grainy tannins and exhilarating freshness supporting the taut, muscular fruit. Mineral and savory accents linger long into the epic finish. A thought-provoking, pensive, mesmerizing wine. Drink 2024-2064.

  • Jeb Dunnuck, January 2021, Score: 100

    Another perfect wine, the 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon IX Estate is mostly Cabernet Sauvignon with 14% Cabernet Franc, 8% Merlot, and 1% Petit Verdot, all from the estate on Pritchard Hill. A monster of a wine that needs serious bottle age, it reveals a dense purple hue as well as a mineral-drenched bouquet of pure crème de cassis, charcoal, spring flowers, tobacco, and earth. Just incredible on the palate, it’s full-bodied and flawlessly balanced, with remarkable purity and a finish that won’t quit. Cabernet – or red wine for that matter – doesn’t get any better! It needs a solid 5-7 years of bottle age. but this legendary wine will see its 50th birthday in fine form. Drink 2026-2068.

Region

Napa Valley

This small town north of San Francisco has grown up to be one of California’s most famous wine regions. It is home to opulent Cabernets and sweetly-spiced Zinfandels, grown across many sub-regions including Stags Leap, Rutherford, Oakville and others. Cooling ocean fogs roll in from the Pacific at night and burn off in the summer sunshine, keeping the region cooler than you would expect for its latitude, and help produce some of the best Californian wines. Napa wines have the concentration and structure to age magnificently.
