The whites start with the 2006 Eroica Riesling
made in collaboration with the Dr. Loosen estate in Germany’s
Mosel region. Since the project began, this has consistently
been among the best non-dessert Rieslings produced in the
USA and the 2006 continues in that tradition. Light straw-colored,
it offers up a lovely floral, mineral, honeysuckle bouquet,
crisp flavors featuring melon and pineapple, excellent balance,
and a long, pure, refreshing finish. This wine may well evolve
in the manner of one of Dr. Loosen’s great Mosel Rieslings.
Stashing a few bottles is a very safe bet.
