2006 TBA No. 7 Welschriesling
Helles Goldgelb. In der Nase sehr feines Steinobstkonfit, einladende Kräuterwürze, zart nach Honig, wirkt noch etwas scheu. Am Gaumen komplex, perfekt eingebundenes Säure-Süßespiel, bereits harmonische Textur, vollreife Tropenfruchtaromen
The green-gold-glinting 2006 #7 Welschriesling Trockenbeerenauslese Zwischen den Seen is another of Kracher’s testimonies to the potential of that ubiquitous and much unloved Central European grape variety. Scents of grilled pineapple, passion fruit, spruce resin, and browned sugar lead to a thickly-rich yet invigoratingly pungent and resinous palate, and the hugely-honeyed finish pulls up just short of becoming cloying. I would plan on revisiting this in several years. It will certainly be capable of holding up to a decade of cellaring, though whether any complexities gained will justify that, only time can tell us. Long-time readers know that I can be hard on Kracher’s Traminer TBAs because this naturally low-acid grape has trouble dealing with the huge levels of residual sugar they impose on it.
