Pop and pour, drank 2 glasses over 2 hours. Wow, this was so much better than previous bottles. It reminds me of a 15+ year old traditional Napa cab such as a Montelena or a Dominus. Slightly rugged with meaty red fruit, leather and cedar. This doesn't seem representative of other tasting notes or my previous experience, so super happy about this bottle and I have a couple left to try.

Starts with red fruit like I often find in Washington Cabernet. Followed by cassis and mild tannins. Eventually, after 1 hour in the decanter I get a delicious dark fruit filled truffle, like Godiva but not as sweet. What a wonderful transformation. Bought 2 bottles from pull full. Glad I have another.

(Cadence Camerata Cara Mia Vineyard) Cassis nose; rich cassis palate with depth; medium-plus finish (85% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% each Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Petit Verdot)
(Cadence Camerata Red Wine Cara Mia Vineyard Red Mountain) Extremely dark purple. Intensely aromatic with pepper and black licorice. Lighter on the palate in terms of the fruit than the other wines sampled. A good scaffolding but needs some time to come into its own. 14.4% alcohol. 496 cases produced.
