Vinous (91)Gemstone's 2011 Red Wine impresses for its length and persistence. Dark red cherries, plums, iron, smoke and tobacco meld together nicely in the glass. The style is powerful and a bit compact, but all the elements are beautifully balanced. Tar, asphalt, savory herbs and tobacco notes reappear in the glass over time, adding complexity. It will be interesting to see if the 2011 opens up with more time in bottle. Today, it is a bit tightly wound. The 2011 is 70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 23% Merlot, 4% Cabernet Franc and 3% Petit Verdot. |
