Eroica has a proven ability to age; in fact it needs at least a half decade in the cellar to show its real strengths. Tight and packed with primary fruit flavors of lime and peach, this beautifully proportioned wine has perceptible sweetness but plenty of natural acidity. Lively and fresh today, but best given a few more years in the cellar. - P.G.

The 2010 Eroica Riesling had just been bottled when I tasted it. It displays similar aromatics but with more elevated acidity, a characteristic of the vintage that provides considerable refreshment in the finish.

Bright, pale yellow.  Slightly candied aomas of nectarine, white peach, spring flowers and minerals.  Off-dry and aromatic in the mouth but a bit one-dimensional, with moderate fruit intensity.  Seemed to flatten out when the CO2 dissipated.  Thins out on the back ending, finishing with hints of nuts and honey and a trace of warmth.
