Winemakers Notes
This wine comes from SummitVine Ranch Vineyard, located at 1800 feet elevation in the Diamond Mountain District. Its northwest hillside exposure provides plenty of hang-time, and the long, sunny days slowly ripen the grapes to perfection. It is very dark and rich, with intense black cherry and black olive aromas and layers of velvety currant, black cherry and blackberry fruit in the mouth. Stunning and remarkably elegant, with a dense core of fleshy, black fruit and nuances of mocha, cedar and spice, immaculately balanced with toasty oak leading to a long and complex finish and firm, integrated tannins.

Reviews for 2005 Vintage
Michael and Susan Klopka own this vineyard which lies just below Constant, high on Diamond Mountain. This 100% Cabernet shows gorgeous fruit with a nicely balanced hint of oak and a soft, lush texture that indicates it is nearing its peak. After the aromatic complexity, the entry has intense cassis, cherry, and plum flavors with hints of spice, anise, and coffee. This wine deserves the Gold Medal that it got at the 2007 San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition. Only 399 cases were made.
Tasting Notes - The Summit Vine Ranch is loaded with aromatic complexity, showing ripe plum, blackberry, cedar, chocolate, and vanilla oak aromas that are rich and concentrated. Incredibly silky and supple in the mouth, the entry has intense cassis, cherry and plum flavors that with each sip reveal additional flavor nuances that are ripe and deeply concentrated. The layers of currant, black cherry, wild berry, spice, anise and toasty oak also show well-integrated tannins providing a long, full-bodied finish that echoes coffee and berry flavors.
