Featuring sixty-seven exceptional color maps as well as eighty-seven vivid images by photographer Hendrik Holler and others, this is the most comprehensive and up-to-date atlas of German wine-a detailed reference to vineyards and appellations. The authors explain the geography of all the German wine-growing regions and provide independent analysis and ranking of the most significant vineyards in each region. In addressing the growing American appreciation of German wines, the atlas pays in-depth attention to Rieslings from the Mosel and other premier regions while also acquainting readers with wines from less familiar areas such as the Ahr, Baden, the Taubertal, and Franconia. Beautifully produced, with helpful sidebars and succinct essays, this book will become the standard reference on the subject.

Reviews for Wine Atlas of Germany

This serious, detailed examination of one of the world's greatest wine countries... is an impressive reference resource. Decanter 20140701 For the diligent student or even the mildly curious, it's a great way to learn about the complexities of German viticulture and law as well as the names of all the great vineyards. The book also lists producers the authors deem good, superior or exceptional-so even German-wine neophytes can locate those names on bottle labels. -Lettie Teague's Six Favorite New Wine Books Wall Street Journal 20140912 Casual readers will enjoy the maps, the photos by Hendrik Holler and overviews while the serious student will find her reward in the details... Highly recommended. The Wine Economist 20140909
