Robert Parker 99 Points! "The 1998 Mr. K. Semillon Vin de Paille is a low alcohol (7.5%) effort whose grapes were pressed when they ranged between 57-59 brix, almost unheard of numbers. It was fermented on indigenous yeasts for 15 months, and then bottled." Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

Robert Parker 98-100 Points! "One of the most compelling sweet wines being made in California, it rivals the world's finest. Tasting notes do not do it justice. Readers need to taste it themselves to see what Manfred Krankl and Alois Kracher, along with Krankl's talented wife, Elaine, have concocted. This is a tour de force in sweet winemaking, with remarkable...

98 Points Robert Parker! "The virtually perfect 2002 Mr. K. The Straw Man boasts astounding statistics. Aged 30 months in barrel, with only 7.2% alcohol, it carries 482 grams per liter of residual sugar (half the wine), and 7.8 grams per liter of acidity. It is simply off the charts. Sexy, eye-popping, palate-staining stuff, it is like liquefied honey with...

There are a whopping 537 cases of half bottles. While deep golden-hued and honeyed, with brilliant unctuosity, thickness, and richness, it takes third place when ranked against its two sweet siblings....

96 Points Robert Parker! "Krankl sighed when he announced the 2003 Mr. K The Iceman, which was sourced from the Babcock Vineyard, will be the last example since the vineyard is being replanted. With 11.1% alcohol, 236 grams of residual sugar per liter, and 7.62 grams of total acidity per liter, this wine shows a kinky, honeyed intensity with notes...

99 Points Robert Parker! "The 2004 Passito Rosso Vino Dolce Vigna Seré is a masterpiece that is impossible to repeat. In fact, the wine has not been produced since 2004. Even if a vintage as good as this did come along, we'd need to wait another 13 years before we could enjoy this level of maturity and evolution. Formally a...

100 Points Robert Parker! "The monumental 2004 Mr. K. The Straw Man, a Sémillon Vin de Pays, possesses 9.9% alcohol and 310 grams per liter of residual sugar yet an amazing 7.6 grams per liter of acidity. An elixir of amazing proportions, there are 2,500 half bottles, which will be released in early 2008. Astounding notes of marmalade, creme brulee,...

The 2005 Atlantis Fe 203-3e Roussanne Vin de Paille is a 100% Roussanne cuvee possessing 352 grams of residual sugar per liter. While it is a stunning effort, when tasted next to the two Mr. K. whites, it comes in slightly below those two out-of-this-world offerings. Incredible aromas of honeysuckle and marmalade are classic late-harvest Roussanne, and the wine’s sweet...

100 Points Robert Parker! "Even more remarkable is the 2005 Mr. K. Marsanne Vin de Paille The Straw Man. One-hundred percent Marsanne from the Beckmen Vineyard, with remarkably low alcohol (7.5%), a whopping 392 grams of residual sugar per liter, and exceptional acidity (6.4 grams of acid per liter), this is one of the most singular sweet wines I have...

"....the 2006 Mr. K. The Iceman (287 grams of residual sugar and 9.4% alcohol) possesses zesty acidity as well as extraordinary complexity. It should rival some of the world’s greatest sweet wines." 95-97 Points Robert Parker Made from frozen grapes from the Bien Nacido Vineyard...(Manfred) Krankl avoids botrytis for his ice wines because he believes that true ice wine should...

97 Points Robert Parker! "The 2006 Mr. K The Strawman Marsanne Vin de Paille is 100% Marsanne from the Beckmen Vineyard that boasts 240 grams of residual sugar per liter. A medium gold-colored effort, it reveals more marmalade notes interwoven with notions of maple syrup, honeysuckle, and exotic tropical fruits. While untuously-textured with remarkable sweetness, it is not cloying because...

"The days of the Mr. K wines are gone forever with the tragically premature death of Austrian Alois Kracher, who had partnered with Manfred Krankl in this intriguing homage to sweet nectars. Krankl continues on his own, and in Spring, 2011, he will release the 2008 Jinete Bajo Roussanne Vin de Paille, which is named after his wife's favorite horse....
