WINE DESCRIPTION

Kracher Nummer 8 Nouvelle Vague Chardonnay Trockenbeerenauslese originates from Austria's Weinlaubenhof Kracher in Burgenland's "Seewinkel" region. This area's unique climate, characterized by lake evaporation and warm Pannonian conditions, encourages the growth of Botrytis cinerea, essential for producing exceptional sweet wines like Beerenauslesen and Trockenbeerenauslesen. The winery uses varietals such as Welschriesling, Chardonnay, Traminer, Scheurebe, Muskat-Ottonel, and sometimes Zweigelt, crafts 10 to 15 different Trockenbeerenauslesen annually in two distinct styles. Nouvelle Vague wines ferment in new barriques, offering depth, spice, and enduring flavors, while "Zwischen den Seen" wines reflect the classic regional style, maturing in large wooden casks or stainless steel tanks.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This Kracher Nummer 8 Nouvelle Vague Chardonnay Trockenbeerenauslese is an exquisite white wine that displays an explosive bouquet of honey, apricot, and peach aromas.On the palate, this wine is full-bodied and creamy, with a pleasant, round texture and a long finish. Flavors of honey, citrus, and ripe stone fruit are balanced by a delightful acidity and a hint of spice.
