Chateau Ste. Michelle Eroica Riesling 2003
Riesling
from Columbia Valley, Washington
winemaker's notes:
Number 68 on Wine Spectator Top 100 Wines of 2004!
Pure, delicious Riesling - one of the best of its kind produced in America.
Rich peach and apricot aromas melded with mineral and floral notes. Mouthwatering acidity. Honeysuckle and citrus peel on the palate.
"Graceful and subtle, with lively support for its stony green apple and delicate apricot flavor, finishing dry but with a caramel note that makes it all the more intriguing. Impressive for the way it knits together. Drink now through 2008." -Wine Spectator

I've tasted a few American Riesling and have been disappointed in the past. This one stood out as a delightful, and tasty wine that is not too dry and acidic. I was pleasantly surprised.
A Customer - Virginia
This is one of the better 2003 American Riesling I have tasted recently. The apricot and peach aromas are followed by more stone fruit flavors and high acidity on the palate. This is a well- balanced tasty wine, that is probably worth its price. Clearly a step up from this winery's Ste. Micheal 2003 Johanesburg Riesling.
