2021 Kracher Trockenbeerenauslese No. 3 Grande Cuvee Nouvelle Vague (375ml) Pre-Arrival Offer

Hailing from the shores of Lake Neusiedl in Austria, the third-generation Kracher family produces here high-quality sweet wines, making the most of the surrounding microclimate, particularly favourable to the development of botrytis. The pinnacle of their production falls under the Kracher Collection, created in 1995 to showcase wines made with different grape varieties and sweetness levels at different stages of botrytis development.

Other Reviews…..
Based on 65% Welschriesling and 35% Chardonnay, the golden-yellow 2021 Trockenbeerenauslese No 3 Grande Cuvée Nouvelle Vague opens with a concentrated and savory nose of candied pineapples and lemons along with notes of brown sugar and fine oak. Round and generous on the palate, this is a full-bodied, rich and refined, elegant and stimulating, saline and finely buoyant TBA with concentrated fruit, fine tannins and a long, caramelly and saline, tight and intense finish. 10% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted at the domaine in May 2024. Drink 2025 - 2070.

Very complex nose of tropical fruit coulis, vanilla, candied ginger and toffee apples. Serious concentration and density, but also a vibrancy that wines of this category seldom have. You need some time to sink into the aromatic and textural complexity, but it’s more than worth the effort. Long, silky and elegant finish. Drink or hold.

So good, full of gorgeous apricot puree, coconut leaf, pineapple, saffron, cumin, turmeric, silky and opulent without being overly sweet, just a beautiful slice of pleasure. Winemaker Gerhard Kracher.
