Sweet wine, 37.5cl. Medium bodied 100% Scheurebe from Burgenland, Austria. 8% ABV. Vegan
“Lemony freshness to the dense herby nose, which is sweet and full. The palate is rounded and intense with a fresh lemony intensity. It’s interesting to note the differences between this and no 5, both from the same variety. This is lighter and fresher. There’s no racking after fermentation in this wine. Because of yeast contact primary fruit is lost, but minerality, character and power are gained. Very good/excellent.” 92/100 Dr Jamie Goode’s Winearok.
Producer Profile Kracher
The Kracher Winery lies in the Seewinkel area of Austria´s Burgenland. Here, through the evaporative periods of Lake Neusiedl, the evening fog and the warm Pannonian climate, continuous warm-humid weather patterns are dominant and, therefore, allow for Botrytis cinerea to be generated. The special love with which he treated the different grape varieties, along with his tireless discussions and efforts that encompassed both tradition and innovation, plus his courage to walk - representing a small family business - amongst the big wine dynasties of the world brought Alois Kracher countless awards and vast recognition. Not the least of the tributes was his being honoured by Great Britain´s renowned Wine Magazine with the coveted "Wine Maker of the Year" title for an impressive seven times - in 1994, 1997, 1998, 2000, 2001, 2006 and 2008.
