TBA for those who love sweets, not wine

1999 Alois Kracher Nr.3 Chardonnay Welschriesling Trockenbeerenauslese;
Amber, raisins and sweet, simple minded, acidity tries, but never manages the residual sugar level, fruity, not that long. 84

An example of how even very great winemakers can't turn stone into gold. Welschriesling (and (sweet) Chardonnay) will never be great sweet wines in my book. They lack the acidity required, and the nuances of flavours. The wine gets to be boring, almost cloying, lacking complexity and refinement.
