The wine

TBA stands for Trockenbeerenauslese. This refers to wine produced in tiny quantities, and only in the best years, from Chardonnay and Welschriesling grapes that are botrytised until they resemble dried raisins. This bottle has a particularly high level of residual sugars which is balanced by its prominent acidic quality. Hand harvesting and meticulous sorting of the berries, followed by vinification and barrel ageing (in 1000-litre barrels for the Welschriesling and new French wood for the Chardonnay) are what give these wines their high value. The palate is robust with notes of grapefruit, mint and a hint of vegetal. This superb, one-of-a-kind wine for food lovers has been crafted with very long ageing in mind.

Information about domain Kracher

The Kracher domaine has earned an international reputation for the quality and sophistication of its sweet wines and has become the standard bearer for Austrian vineyards. Three generations of winegrowers have worked since 1928 to produce consistently excellent sweet wines. It is located close to Neusiedl lake where the climate is propitious to the formation of noble rot. There is a wide range of wines and different vinifications are offered, even for wines of similar sweetness. The wines very clearly reflect the know-how handed down from one generation to the next with an enduring love of wine. They are all perfectly balanced, rich and wonderfully aromatic.
