November 21, 2015 - Blend of Welschriesling, Chardonnay and Traminer, 180g/l residual sugar. Honeyed fruit, tropical notes, caramel, orange zest. Spicy, sweet, quite broad and mouth coating. Nice lift and energy, very good length. 90-92

September 14, 2015 - An NV bottle with no further indication of age, vintage or bottling date.
Moderately deep golden yellow with a bronze hue. Very complex and enormously attractive nose with aromas of smoky, roasted spices, mushroomy botrytis tones, honey, some dried apricots, a little bit of beeswax and a hint of pineapple. The wine is full-bodied, quite sweet and pretty sticky with intense, mouth-filling flavors of honey, pineapples, dried apricots, some lemon marmalade, a little bit of smoky character and a hint of spicy botrytis. Overall the acidity feels remarkably high, lending wonderful freshness and sense of structure to the wine and intensity to the flavors. The finish is very sweet and remarkably acid-driven with intense flavors of honey, syrupy molasses, ome exotic spices, a little bit of rich, mushroomy botrytis character and a hint of dried peach.
A wonderfully complex, delicious and vibrant TBA with remarkable sense of concentration and intensity. How the high acidity and pronounced residual sugar cancel each other out here is just perfect here. The wine is drinking really well right now, but the wine also shows good potential for furhter development. A terrific purchase at 23,90€. -

April 17, 2015 - Featuring a honeyed nose with orange zest and quince jam this is extremely sweet and unctuous on the palate with the acidity failing to support it. Quite overwhelming.

February 14, 2015 - 187ml bottle to cap Valentine's Day dinner. Said to be 60% Chard, 40% Welsh Riesling. Very sweet yellow fruits and some caramel, but acidity that recalls eiswein that keeps it from being a all cloying.
Much better than the NV BA tasted alongside, which was just sweet and some botrytis bitterness in the finish.

July 31, 2010 (link)(NV Weingut Kracher Trockenbeerenauslese) Saline elements lead into orange cream and a candied citrus-peel finish. An amazing value from one of the finest TBA houses in the world. Winery Spotlight: Weingut Kracher
