Well, at least issues in my head
2008 Celebration Beaujolais-Villages.
The identity issue:This is sold everywhere as Evening Land (the Lafon operation in Oregon), but the name only appears on this bottle as importer. Front label has Celebration Gamay Noir Beaujolais-Villages, in tiny print is says bottled in (or for) Cote d'Or producer code. Back label says Celebration 2008 Burgundy Wine, imported by Evening Land Vineyards, etc.
The wine (with salmon, bok choy, rice with furikake- not greatest match, I chose because Betsy said salmon, but didn't inquire enough to know she was doing it in a mirin marinade,and a lemon/sesame sauce- white would have been better, though this did ok): hey, this is actually quite good. Very floral, a bit of earth, but mostly snappy red fruit. Good acidity, slightly tart cranberry and raspberry, classic Beaujolais. On day 2 a tad deeper/fuller. Great deal at about $8. B+/B
2005 Arcadian Sleepy Hollow Vineyard Chardonnay (Santa Lucia Highlands)
The identity issue - so that's the total description on bottle. But this was sold as the Sleepy Hollow young vines. CT lists both Sleepy Hollow, and Sleepy Hollow Young Vines. But winery website only lists one, with older vines, and identical alcohol (13.3%).
The wine: I thought Arcadian had a rep as anti-oak, so slightly taken aback by obvious oak on nose. But it seems more integrated on palate, rich pear and citrus fruit, a little dirt, good length, more acids than most CalChards I run across. Might do ok in a flight of fatter Meursaults. B
2009 Anselmi San Vincenzo
The identity issue: ok , I actually know story on this one. A Soave in all but name, Anselmi chooses to make as Veneto IGT.
The wine (with quick bouillabaisse, as I was too lazy to move boxes to try to find Provencal rose): light, crisp, almond notes over lemon fruit. Not complex, but fun and food friendly. B/B-
Grade disclaimer: I'm a very easy grader, basically A is an excellent wine, B a good wine, C mediocre. Anything below C means I wouldn't drink at a party where it was only choice. Furthermore, I offer no promises of objectivity, accuracy, and certainly not of consistency.
