Eroica (Chateau Ste Michelle-Dr. Loosen) 2014 Columbia Valley Riesling, $14.44-$20.99, 93 points, poured a light brass color grading clear at the glass shallows.
Gentle aromas of peach, pome blossoms, and a faint hint of petrol were excellent.
Light-bodied (off-dry) with good acidity and flavors that rightly reflected the aromas with apple highlights were excellent too.
Finished long on the trailing palate, kiwi, and a spot-on 12% alcohol.
An amazingly versatile wine with our smorgasbord, especially my very own lobster rangoon hors d'oeuvres, but excellent with deep fried scallops, honeydew melon, and sweet carrot cake.
