Since visiting the Napa Valley in 1973, while attending college in southern California, Peter Thompson set his sights on getting into the wine business, specifically in the Napa Valley. In 1992, Peter began actively pursuing his goal of owning a vineyard in the prestigious Napa Valley. During a two and one-half year search for the ultimate vineyard property, Peter selected the Andrew Geoffrey Vineyards site atop Diamond Mountain. The property was undeveloped, but only needed the right combination of efforts to realize its incredible potential for creating a state-of-the-art vineyard to produce world class California Cabernet Sauvignon wine.
Andrew Geoffrey Vineyards is proud to announce the release of its sixth vintage, the 2005 Diamond Mountain District Cabernet Sauvignon. This release continues a tradition of unparalleled quality from the estate vineyard located atop Diamond Mountain in the Diamond Mountain District sub-appellation of the Napa Valley. John Gibson, Andrew Geoffrey's winemaker, has blended the finest lots produced from the varietals grown in the vineyard to produce a sophisticated and balanced age-able wine. The wine was bottled on July 2, 2007.
