Eroica

I was cruising by BLM’s wine refrigerator a bit back, and a slender, slightly taller bottle caught my eye; the label said Eroica, and it was inevitable that it ended up in the shopping cart.

A 2005 Columbia Valley (Washington) Riesling, this is a collaboration between Dr Ernst Loosen and Chateau Ste Michelle and is quite yummy (yeah, I know, not exactly proper wine tasting terminology; deal with it!). I’ve been back several times to restock, but the last few times, it hasn’t been there…

OTOH, the 2007 is available at the Web site
