The 2006 Eroica delivers fresh mandarin orange and lime aromas and fl avors with subtle mineral and slate notes. This Eroica shows the warm vintage through its slightly richer, bolder style than the previous vintage. Although slightly more fruit forward, the 2006 Eroica still achieves complexity from the diverse mix of vineyards we source from--including higher elevation vineyards on the fringes of the Columbia Valley, as well as the more traditional older vines from the Yakima Valley.
Wine Spectator Light, bright, tangy and appealing for its delicate green apple, peach, floral and lime flavors, lingering nicely and hinting at mineral on the polished finish. Drink now through 2012. 27,600 cases made. Score: 90. —Harvey Steiman, June 30, 2007.Customers who purchased this item also bought:
