The VisionWinery owner Tom Klein envisioned Sonoma County cabernet sauvignons that match in quality with the finest wines of the world; truly Californian, specifically from Alexander Valley, with a pedigree of place captured. Meticulously farmed and single vineyard in origin, these 100% estate grown wines exemplify the very best winemaking practices, ultimately bringing specific places and skillful technique together.
rockAwAy VineyArdRockaway vineyard is slightly south and east of Geyserville at the foot of the northern stretches of the Mayacamas Mountain range. It is planted mostly to cabernet sauvignon and merlot, but includes all five of the classic Bordeaux varieties.
BroThers ridge VineyArdIn the hills to the east of the small town of Cloverdale, Brothers Ridge spans 141 acres, nearly all planted to cabernet sauvignon, with smaller amounts of merlot and cabernet franc.
AlexAnder’s crown VineyArdEstablished in 1971 and recognized as the first vineyard in Sonoma County to produce a single vineyard cabernet sauvignon, Alexander’s Crown is perched atop a hill in the south-center of Alexander Valley, just south of Jimtown.
The TechniqueHand selected clusters from each vineyard are delivered to our winery in small bins, sorted a second time before de-stemming, and berry sorted before fermentation in small, temperature controlled stainless steel tanks. Not long after settling down in the finest French oak barrels, the targeted lots are tasted, and those that show richness, balance, roundness, concentration, and length, are blended for further maturing.

The region is 22 miles long, and ranges from two to seven miles wide. It is cooled by Pacific Ocean air flowing from south to north with the coolest area of the valley on the southern end, near Jimtown.
In the northernmost hills, near the town of Cloverdale, heat dominates. Cabernet sauvignon can ripen well and display a variety of styles up and down the valley, and in and out of the hills.

HigH Valley aVa
High Valley appellation is at an elevation of 1,700 - 1,800 ft. and 400 - 500 ft. above Clear Lake. High Valley ridge rises above the valley floor forming an isolated basin that traverses west to east. round Mountain (an active volcano during the Late Pliocene Period) is located on the eastern end of the valley. Volcanic eruptions formed a unique ‘geology’ in High Valley resulting in excellent drainage conditions along with a variety of soil types ideal for hearvesting a wide range of grape varietals.

Clear Lake, north of Mt. St. Helena and east of the Mayacamas, at 1,320 ft. elevation, extends seven miles west to east to further cool the Pacific breezes as they blow inland. During the growing months of april - October high and low temperatures comparable to the greatest grape growing regions in the world are created in our High Valley Vineyards.
