Columbia Valley, Oregon/Washington, USA
I said “very figgy” 18 times after tasting this and as such those are my notes. Definitely bigger than a lot of sweet Riesling — I think it would be yummy with rich desserts.

Eroica is the collaboration of Washington's largest riesling producer, Chateau Ste. Michelle and Mosel's Weingut Dr. Loosen. 2012 was the first vintage of Gold, which is done in an Auslese style and sourced from two Washington vineyards, Viewcrest and CSM's Horse Heaven. It's a lip-smacking, off-dry explosion of orange marmalade, grilled pineapple, Anjou pear, and lime zest, with a healthy dose of botrytis and ample acidity.

Straw gold in the glass. Petrol and underripe pome on the nose. Medium full body; medium plus acidity. Ashy petrol and white peach on the palate. RS adds weight more than sweetness, which is subdued thanks to acidity. Medium dark-ish finish. Good food wine.
