Trockenbeerenauslese No 1 Traminer Nouvelle Vague 2000 Kracher

Professionelle Bewertungen

Robert Parker (98)

Almost 25 years after the harvest, Alois Kracher's 2025 Library Release is the 2000 Trockenbeerenauslese No 1 Traminer Nouvelle Vague, which displays a burnt-orange color with a brightening, yellowish edge. The nose is deep, very intense and complex as well as elegant and layered with malt, salt, mocha, tobacco and pencil tip aromas intermingling with ripe, yellow plum fruit and notes of dried-red orange skin as well as honey and very fine caramel aromas. On the palate, this is a rich and very elegant, highly finessed and pristine, textured and perfectly balanced TBA with very fine tannins and a dark caramel sweetness. All the richness is balanced by super delicate acidity and salinity, which makes TBAs from Lake Neusiedl some of the world's finest noble sweet wines. I'd go with a cigar with this or dark chocolate spiced with oranges. 14% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted at the domaine in Illmitz in June 2025.
