Alois Kracher Auslese Cuvee 2020

A blend of 60% Chardonnay and 40% Welschriesling. A sweet wine with residual sugar of just over 70g per litre. Fermented and matured in stainless steel tanks for 11 months. 

Medium yellow-green color. Attractive aromas of tangerine, passion fruit over jasmine; an enticing bouquet. Succulent, highly elegant and vibrant structure that is refreshing with well integrated acidity. 

"Gerhard Kracher, genius of the Trockenbeerenauslese category. 

In the late 1980s and up to his early death in 2007, Alois Kracher handcrafted some of the greatest noble sweet wines of the world. His annual collections of numbered TBAs (Trockenbeerenauslesen), produced in Illmitz at the lake Neusiedl, became legends and were often presented along with the finest sweet wines from Sauternes (namely Château d’Yquem), Tokaji (Szepsi) and Mosel-Saar-Ruwer (Egon Müller, Joh. Jos. Prüm). Alois’s son Gerhard Kracher has managed to maintain the extremely high level of quality.” Stephan Reinhardt, RobertParker.com
