NINE SUNS WINERY - ST. HELENA, CA.
Located on Pritchard Hill, the 40-acre property showcases
agriculture, science, history, and art. A modern design fused with
Asian influence, the project included the construction of business
offices, wine production buildings and wine caves - which
incorporate an exclusive, temperature-controlled, private
tasting-room. Strategically placed parking area walls deliberately
prevent visitors from admiring the spectacular views of the valley
below until they reach the plateau of the visitor center. The
winery’s many unique features include the main foyer’s walls of
burnt cedar, the barrel aging cave is coated with Elephant Armor
which gives the cave an elegant smooth and waterproof finish, and a
small wine library is shaped like a guitar with gold ‘strings’
embedded in the floor. Outside, the visitor hospitality seats can be
electrically heated and what was previously a helicopter pad has
been artfully converted into scenic overlook.
