The Cuvée Beerenauslese by Kracher is a sweet botrytized wine produced in Austria in the famous wine region of Burgenland. The label is born from a blend of Welschriesling and Chardonnay. It belongs to the Beerenauslese type of the German classification, meaning it is produced with a late harvest of grapes that have dried on the vine and are affected by Botrytis Cinerea. In addition to the natural concentration of aromas due to the delayed harvest, the presence of noble rot on the berries enriches the wines with complex aromas, characterized by the typical and light botrytis note, which constitutes its uniqueness and charm.

The sweet wine Cuvée Beerenauslese is produced by one of the most famous Austrian wineries, which also dedicates itself to the production of sweet wines. The estate is located near Illmitz, in the Burgenland region. The proximity to Lake Neusiedl creates a particular microclimate, with night humidity and sunny, breezy days, ideal for the development of Botrytis Cinerea. It is precisely the noble rot that marks the profileof the wine and characterizes its aromas in such a recognizable way. The grapes are left on the vine to dry and at the end of the late harvest, the best bunches affected by Botrytis Cinerea are sent for fermentation in steel for 80% and in large barrels for the remaining 20%. Before bottling, the wine rests for 16 months in steel and in large oak barrels.

The late harvest Cuvée Beerenauslese Kracher is a botrytized wine of great finesse and elegance, a true excellence among dessert wines. It is a perfect label to bring to the table with a platter of blue cheeses or to enjoy with some small dry pastries. In the glass, it presents itself with a seductive pale straw-yellow color. The bouquet expresses enticing aromas of honey, citrus zest, ripe peach, tropical fruit, subtle iodized and botrytized sensations. On the palate, it is soft and sweet, with a great aromatic richness with a mouth center characterized by notes of ripe fruit, which unfolds harmoniously towards a salty finish of great freshness.
