Somm Note
Winemaker Notes
Bright yellow color with silver reflections. 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.

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2012 Cuvée Beerenauslese blends 60% Welschriesling with 40% Chardonnay, and contains the grapes whose concentration was not high enough for a TBA. Quince, pineapples and white peach aromas along with citrus flavors on the nose lead to a sweet, well-concentrated, really fresh and piquant palate with a pure a beautifully salty finish. This is very well structured and matched with many kinds of food dishes.

Spectator
Located in the Seewinkel, an area in the Burgenland region of Austra, along the eastern shore of Lake Neusiedl, Weinlaubenhof Alois Kracher is in possession of a microclimate uniquely suited to the production of Beerenauslese and Trockenbeerenauslese wines. 32 hectares of vineyards are planted with Welschriesling, Chardonnay, Traminer, Muskat Ottonel and Scheurebe. Kracher is internationally regarded as one of the finest dessert wine makes. After Alois Kracher passed away in December 2007, his 27 year-old son Gerhard took over responsibility of winemaking. He manages the winery with the same strength, firm will and consequence as his famous father once did.
