January 16, 2024 - Decanted for an hour before tasting. I am well aware that, in general, Cadnece wines benefit from aging, but this might be better with even a few more years in bottle than the 13 years it already has behind it. Peppery ted fruit and florals were delicious and complex. Drink now with a decant or keep aging for another 2-5. Excellent.

January 27, 2020 - An off vintage vs. other Bel Cantos. PNP as 2nd wine in dinner party. Hints of mountain fruit (as noted 3 years ago in tasting note below) yet then there was nothing. Hoped for more during the hours after and on day 2 and day 3. Still just "some kind of wine".

November 11, 2016 - After a necessary three hour decant, this wine does open up with dark mountain fruit, but not overly expressive or bright. Active tannins even after three hours suggest this wine has more time and will get better over the next few years. Medium weight and solid but not spectacular.

12/20/2013 (link) ***** points(Cadence Bel Canto Cara Mia Vineyard Red Mountain) An aromatically compelling wine with earth, floral notes, mineral, strawberry, raspberry, and cherry. The palate is seamless, textured, and restrained with beautifully integrated tannins and a thirty-plus second finish. A classic Bordeaux-style blend with a long life ahead of it. Give at least three years. 77% Cabernet Franc, 15% Merlot, and 8% Petit Verdot. 14.4% alcohol. Sample provided by winery.
