Frequently Asked Questions

What kinds of wines are Kracher known for?

Kracher is predominantly famous for its exquisite sweet wines, specifically their Trockenbeerenauslesen. These sweet wines are renowned for their complexity, intense aromatics, and well-balanced acidity. They typically come from the Burgenland region in Austria, using grapes like Welschriesling and Chardonnay. These dessert wines often feature notes of apricot, honey, and tropical fruits, making them incredibly inviting and luscious on the palate. However, their portfolio isn't limited to just dessert wines. Kracher also produces dry whites and a limited range of reds that are equally remarkable for their quality and flavor profile. The winery's versatility and commitment to excellence make them a standout in Austrian wine production.

Where are Kracher wines made?

Kracher wines are crafted in the illustrious wine-producing area of Burgenland, situated in the eastern part of Austria. This region boasts optimal climatic conditions that are highly favorable for viticulture. The Neusiedler See, a large, shallow lake, provides a unique microclimate that is especially beneficial for late-harvest wines. The lake's influence helps in developing noble rot (Botrytis cinerea), which is vital in concentrating the sugars and flavors in the grapes used for Kracher's renowned sweet wines. The terroir of Burgenland, enriched with loamy and sandy soils, also contributes to the wines' distinctive characteristics.

What are the best Kracher wines?

When it comes to Kracher's portfolio, the pinnacle of excellence is often considered to be their Trockenbeerenauslesen, a style of dessert wine that is rich, concentrated, and intensely flavorful. Among these, the Welschriesling Trockenbeerenauslese is a crowd favorite, gaining international acclaim for its complexity and balance. Another top-notch offering is their Chardonnay Trockenbeerenauslese, known for its luscious texture and deep flavors. However, if you're looking for dry wines, their range of dry whites are also considered some of the best in the region, offering crisp acidity and well-defined fruit notes.

Are Kracher wines affordable?

Affordability is a relative term, especially in the context of high-quality wines like those from Kracher. Their prestigious Trockenbeerenauslesen wines can be on the higher end of the price spectrum due to the meticulous care and labor-intensive methods involved in their production. However, Kracher also offers a range of wines that are more accessible price-wise, without compromising on quality. For example, their dry white wines are generally more budget-friendly and offer an entry point to the Kracher experience. Overall, while some of their elite wines may be considered a luxury, there are options available for those who wish to experience the quality of Kracher wines without breaking the bank.
