White dry
Kracher Chardonnay Kreuz Burgenland 2018 - an elegant, aromatic, perfectly balanced wine that demonstrates the Burgenland terroir and the winery's craftsmanship. The wine is broad, fresh and big, with a fairly strong Austrian character. The wine has aromas of spicy herbs, tropical fruits, gooseberries, citrus fruits intertwine with vanilla, smoke, flint, honey. Long mineral aftertaste. The wine was aged for 24 months in new oak barrels.
Residual sugar content: 1.2g/l.
Sugar content: 5.3g/l.
Serve at a temperature of 10–12°C with fried pike, salmon, and chicken dishes.
The expansive nose of flint, smoke and candied orange makes you expect a huge wine, and this is full-bodied and rich on the front palate, but then comes the crisp finish with interlocking, lively acidity and fine tannins. Needs some time to relax. Drinkable now, but best from 2024.
The Kracher winery in Austria is located next to Lake Neusiedl. It is one of the few places in the world where practically every year it is possible to grow and harvest a proper harvest affected by noble rot and to produce sweet wines. It is the sweet Kracher wines that have gained worldwide recognition and various titles, the producer himself has been recognized as the winemaker of the year five times, and one of the most famous wine critic Robert Parker rates Kracher wines the highest (the only Austrian wine is rated 100 points!). Kracher wine is characterized by harmony, as the sweetness is offset and balanced by refreshing acids, and the most complex wines are exceptionally long-lasting and become an object of collection.
