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.
