2015 GEMSTONE ALLUVIAL SELECTION CABERNET SAUVIGNON (1.5L) MAGNUM From The Wine Spectator, “Firm and tightly focused on a core of dense dark berry, loamy earth, cedar, sage and cigar box flavors. All in all, this is a mouthcoating effort. Best from 2020 through 2032.” 93 Points From Robert Parker’s The Wine Advocate, “Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2015 Estate 'Alluvial Selection' Cabernet Sauvignon is a little youthfully mute, providing glimpses at black cherry compote, baked blueberries and spice cake with an undercurrent of charcuterie, underbrush and tar. The full-bodied palate is taut and chewy, offering up savory layers and dried berry flavors, finishing with the spices coming through. 750 cases were produced.” 92 Points From Vinous, “The 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon Alluvial Selection is one of the most intriguing wines I have tasted from Gemstone in some years. Vibrant and powerful in the glass, with plenty of polish, the 2015 has a lot to offer. Black cherry, graphite, menthol, licorice and plum abound in this super-expressive Cabernet Sauvignon. The Alluvial Selection includes a touch of Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc.” 92 Points
