A Welschriesling Trockenbeerenauslese? This grape is not included in the Master of Wine exam. But try the wine. Especially during Advent, a wine with only 5.5% alcohol and the world-famous Kracher finesse is always superior to all alternatives. Punch? No, with vanilla crescents the finest sweets from our region. Better than any Tokaj. Drink less, but only the best.
