The 2005 Facets of Gemstone is 100% estate grown farmed from the Gemstone Vineyard. This rich and spicy wine is a blend of 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 22% Merlot, 17% Cabernet Franc, and 11% Petite Verdot. The 2005 Facets is elegant, austere, and almost a dead ringer for a Medoc from Bordeaux with a floral, restrained nose of sweet cherries; a pretty and pure French-styled blend.

Not bad. Nice perfumed fruit. A bit dry and hot.
