I'm not sure of sources in Texas. Know there is a problem shipping wines to Texas from out-of-state. Carolina Wine Company in Raleigh usually carries several Kracher TBAs (from Austria I believe) and they can run as much as $60 or more for a half-bottle (375ml). They are pretty expensive even in the country of origin (such as Germany or Austria) which is understandable because it takes so many clusters of the grapes to produce a small quantity of wine. I think I have a few of the 375ml bottles on hand that I bought at sale prices in December or January. Just checked and www.popswine.com has a few German Eisweins and Austria trockens listed at $50-$60 etc. (including a trocken from the weissburgunder grape at $50+ for a full-size bottle (750 ml). Pop's is in New York. Some of the larger online shops in Chicago may have listings also.

I think $60 for a 375 ml sounds about right. Duane, try the Balcones branch of Twin Liquors at 5408 Balcones, Austin, 78731. IK stopped there on a road trip a couple of years back and spoke highly of them. If they don't have one in stock, they can order one from their distributors.

Check with Rob Moshein at The Cellar, 1320 A/B Bee Caves Rd. in the Westlake section. His phone number is 512-328-6464. Let him know I sent you.

That's weird... My message didn't come up when I first tried to send it, so I tried to send it again... then 8 more times... still nothing. I come back the next day and it looks like I'm drunk.
So when I try to delete the excess messages, it only lets me do so to several of them. I need a drink.
