Gerhard makes the Sohm & Kracher wines at the Kracher family winery in Illmitz, Burgenland. All fermentations are spontaneous and temperature-controlled. Gerhard’s philosophy on SO2 is a blunt “as much as needed.” All of the wines remain on the fine less until very shortly before bottling and are fermented bone dry.

This shows floral notes, with some bittersweet almond on backend. It has a nice, smooth texture and good length, with citrus echoing on the finish.
