Reviews:
- Wine Advocate: 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.
Producer Information
Gemstone Vineyard was founded by Suzie and Paul Frank in 1997 (their first vintage). The Franks built a successful gemstone business (diamonds) in the Los Angeles area (hence the name of the wine) and both have enjoyed wine since college. They met Ren & Marilyn Harris (owners of Napa’s Paradigm Winery) who were specializing in vineyard real estate in the 1990s. After looking for property for some time the Frank’s purchased their 17-acre vineyard in 1992. The Harris’s introduced the Franks to a number of winery owners based in Napa Valley over the years.Paul has led a successful career; he was a founding director of both the Jewelry Circle of the City of Hope Medical Center and the jewelry panel of the Los Angeles Natural History Museum. More recently he has been director of the Emeril Lagasse Foundation.
