2002 Anselmi, Capitel Foscarino:

Vibrant wine showing young; ripe fruit balanced against lively acids and under-pinned by moderate minerality, concentrated, intense, juicy, fresh and powerfully flavored without being heavy in the mouth; long finish. I would be curious to see how this ages but even though I have a case of it, I know it won’t last in my cellar. Real good wine.

1997 Sean Thackrey, Orion:

Soy, Worcestershire sauce, nutmeg and raisins on both the nose and palate, concentrated, intense, disjointed and tiring. Neither Diane nor I could finish a glass. Doesn’t even go with strongly flavored cheese.

Best, Jim
