The 2022 Kracher Trockenbeerenauslese Grande Cuvée No 3 emerges from an outstanding vintage, showcasing a deep, complex, and elegantly refined character. This sweet wine is a saline blend of 60% Chardonnay and 40% Welschriesling, meticulously aged for 28-30 months in barrique and large oak casks respectively. On the nose, it presents vivacious aromas of lemon rind, chutney, oak, vanilla, bright toast, concentrated mango, mangosteen, and candied citrus, with hints of caramel. The palate is generous and rich, yet remarkably refined and elegant, offering concentrated sweet fruit, very fine tannins, and a delicate saline and crystalline acidity that provides exceptional balance. It also reveals notes of green apple, pear, pineapple, peach, creamy lemon, and a subtle bitterness. This irresistible sweet wine is highly praised, receiving 98 points from The Wine Advocate and 95 from James Suckling, and is recommended for cellaring for another decade to fully appreciate its complexity. 【Awarded 98/100 by The Wine Advocate and 95 by James Suckling, a truly exceptional sweet wine with significant aging potential.
