Le vignoble du domaine Kracher s'étend sur les pentes douces entourant le lac Neusiedl, bénéficiant d'un microclimat optimal. Les sols sont variés, mêlant argile et calcaire, ce qui confère aux raisins une minéralité distinctive. La proximité du lac joue un rôle crucial, créant une humidité ambiante qui favorise le développement de la pourriture noble, essentielle pour les vendanges tardives. Chaque parcelle est cultivée avec soin, respectant les cycles naturels pour obtenir des raisins sains et mûrs, riches en arômes.

Owner and history

Aujourd'hui, le domaine est dirigé par la seconde génération, avec son fils, Gerhard Kracher, à la tête. Il a su perpétuer l'héritage familial tout en apportant une touche de modernité. Gerhard est passionné par l'exploration des terroirs et l'innovation dans la vinification, tout en restant fidèle aux traditions qui ont fait la renommée de Kracher. Sous sa direction, le domaine continue de produire des vins qui enchantent les palais et célèbrent la diversité du terroir de Burgenland.

Vinification and aging

L'élevage se fait en fût de chêne, permettant d'apporter complexité et structure tout en respectant l'identité du vin. Le domaine privilégie des méthodes artisanales, assurant que chaque bouteille reflète la passion et le savoir-faire de la famille Kracher.
