First produced in 2002, IX Estate is a wine of great power with towering aromatics of dark fruits, savoury herbs, and spice. A powerful blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. The 2017 beams from the glass with a feeling of purpose and a sense of place. In its youth, this vintage has continually shown enhanced soil driven aromas such as iron, graphite and wild sage. Raspberry and marzipan combine with juniper and nutmeg, adding complexity at every sip. A firm yet pleasurable structure and a harmonious succulence. The 2017 IX Estate retains focus and purity combined with heightened acidity, ensuring it will last for decades.
98 The Wine Independent
Medium to deep garnet in color, the 2017 IX Estate swans out of the glass with glamorous notions of baked plums, boysenberry preserves, and Indian spices, followed by hints of crushed rocks, redcurrant jelly, dusty soil, and rusty nails. The full-bodied palate delivers incredible tension, with lots of bright red and black berry layers and a plush texture, finishing long and ferrous.Lisa Perrotti-Brown28th June 2023

The 2017 IX Estate really speaks to the essence of this site high above Lake Hennessey. Rich, ample and full-bodied, with tremendous mineral and savory intensity, the 2017 has so much to offer. Graphite, menthol, licorice, espresso, spice, black cherry and plum emerge with some reluctance, but it is the wine's explosive energy that stands out most. The 2017 is a potent, brooding wine that clearly demands patience. Today, its mountain structure is especially evident.Antonio Galloni1st January 2020
