WINE ADVOCATE 93 POINTS - Blending 70% Welschriesling with 30% Chardonnay, the 2018 Cuvée Beerenauslese offers a fascinating, precise and spicy quince and refreshing lemon zest aroma and even salinity. Bottled with 135 grams per liter of residual sugar, this is a highly elegant, refined and perfectly balanced Cuvée with precision, lingering salinity and delicate freshness. Sustainable candied fruit aromas. This is a gorgeous BA that should go perfectly well with mature cheese, certainly Kaiserschmarrn (torn pancake) and salted popcorn. Tasted in February 2021.

Kracher wines have long been in a class of their own. The vision of legendary winemaker Alois Kracher, Jr. is carried on by his son Gerhard. Practically no other sweet wines have reached such a high level of recognition worldwide or the same consistently high ratings. Serve these wines from picturesque Illmitz, Austria to friends at your home for a special evening!
This handcrafted dessert wine has pronounced honeyed notes over attractive aromas of ripe stone fruit, subtle spices and mineral character. Nuances of juicy yellow fruit with vibrant acidity; highly elegant and balanced with a touch of salt, leading to a lingering mandarin finish.
