I would take a look at Orbea and Look, too, along with custom steel (which would be my choice).

Live with intention. Walk to the edge. Listen hard. Practice wellness. Play with abandon. Laugh. Choose with no regret. Continue to learn. Appreciate your friends. Do what you love. Live as if this is all there is.

I ride a Madone 5.5 and love it. The Madones have extra large bottom brackets so they should be especially stiff for climbing.
7Rider, I loved my Specialized Allez, too, but Specialized frames tend to run bigger than most, with a longer top tube. I ended up using an especially short stem to make it work for me.
I'd rather be swimming...biking...running...and eating cheesecake...
