Note di degustazione
The 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon is darker, richer and more powerful than the Red Wine, but it is also much more tannic. Mocha, plums, black cherries, new leather and licorice are all quite forward. The wine closes down significantly on the mid palate and through the finish. Even within the context of the vintage, the Cabernet is especially unyielding.

Tobacco, cedar, smoke and savory herbs are some of the notes that emerge from Gemstone's 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon. Tasted next to the 2012, the 2013 is quite a bit more mineral and savory driven, with greater overall structure and aging potential. Hints of smoke, licorice, tobacco and mocha are laced into the tense, pulsating finish.
A barrel sample of the 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate (94% Cabernet Sauvignon and 6% Petit Verdot) reveals textbook notes of blackcurrants, tobacco leaf, licorice and fruitcake, a stunningly rich, long finish and a beautiful, medium to full-bodied mouthfeel. It should drink well for 15+ years.
