2013 TBA #8 Scheurebe ZDS
Buying options
Tasting notes
The Zwischen den Seen (“in between the lakes“) range is matured in stainless steel and large old oak, with a focus on purity of fruit and freshness. We have small volumes of the 2013 Nummer 8 Scheurebe. The wines are numbered in ascending order of sweetness, and in 2013 this was the sweetest wine Kracher made. It has a massive 295.7g/l residual sugar, yet the wine has amazing balance thanks to the Scheurebe grape’s natural high acidity. It was a star of a recent tasting by Antonio Galloni – “an exotic, wonderfully nuanced TBA that dazzles from start to finish”. Complex, vibrant and unbelievably concentrated, sweet wines don’t come much better than this.

The 2013 Scheurebe Zwischen den Seen TBA is a wine of magnificent beauty. Deep, layered and so expressive, the 2013 possesses tremendous complexity and a real feeling of dimension that is hard to fully capture in words. Apricot jam, spice, rose petal, burnt sugar and crushed rocks all develop in an exotic, wonderfully nuanced TBA that dazzles from start to finish. Vivid and constantly changing in the glass, the Scheurebe is pure magic.
