Alois Kracher Biography

Alois Kracher is one of the most popular and richest Celebrity who was born on February 23, 1959 in Burgenland, Austria. Alois Kracher Jr. (23 February 1959 – 5 December 2007, in Illmitz) was one of the most successful winemakers of Austria, and was known under the nickname “Luis”. The wines from his vineyard Weinlaubenhof Kracher reached a world reputation and high acclaim from international wine critics such as Robert M. Parker, Jr., who awarded 98 points or higher on his famous 100-point scale to several of Kracher’s wines. His fame was mainly built on his sweet wines, so called Trockenbeerenauslesen (TBA) of high sweetness and enormous concentration that results from the development of noble rot on the grapes. Local conditions on the shallow Lake Neusiedl, where the Kracher vineyards are situated, are conducive to the development of Botrytis cinerea (the fungus responsible for noble rot).

In 2007, Kracher died of pancreatic cancer at the age of 48 in Illmitz, Burgenland, Austria. He was married and had a son, Gerhard Kracher (born 1981), who at the time of Alois’ death had been working in the family’s wine business for a number of years.

Parker’s The Wine Advocate, although that score was awarded to a Mr. K wine, the 2004 Mr. K The Strawman, a Vin de Paille from Semillon.
