There are gaps in both of them. The reasons for missing wineries are threefold: 1) They are not included because the publishers do not find them good enough. 2) The winery refuses to send in samples (for any reason) 3) Some wineries, especially in the big wine districts of Germany, have not been discovered by the authors > does Eichelmann evaluate all of wineries including all of > prestigious > ones such as JJ Prum & Fritz Haag. > Especially, the list of Mosel seems insufficient... There are some wineries who refuse to send samples to Eichelmann. This fact also goes for Gault Millau and WeinPlus. WeinPlus (internet based) is using the 100 points in a more conservative way than the two others, who are very much on the same level. At least when I compare the top ten wineries here at Mittelrhein. To a certain extent Eichelmann then buy the wines himself. > > One more question, > Do you think they will publish the english version this time? I don't know... BTW Concerning the quality and consistency of the ratings Weinplus and Eichelmann are better than Gault Millau, which has "darlings" who are persistently overrated, especially in the description of the wineries. Eichelmann and WeinPlus are making blind tastings, this is not the case at Gault Milllau.
