Subject: Re: Trockenbeerenauslese |
| Dear Peter, Is there an equivalent of the famous Sterrates Clotten map (from the Mosel) covering the Mittelrhein, or other regions than the Mosel and the Nahe? I can't believe that the Regierungsbezirk offices neglected those regions, if the maps are extant. I think that there was a Regierungsbezirk in Koblenz (Coblenz), whose map covers the downstream part of the Mosel. What about the Mittelrhein, though? Is there a map available from the Prussians for those vineyards? Some pretty famous names along this stretch! So far I've been able to collect three maps. Two from the Mosel and one from the Nahe, in the high-quality reproductions that have been made. My interest in wine maps (and German wines) doesn't stop there, of course. I've also been collecting geologic maps of wine regions, if only from internet sources.

Also, don't forget to look at the Wein-Plus wine guide for Germany. I have a Wine Atlas of Germany by Hugh Johnson, published by Mitchell Beazley, which is quite good for maps. German Wines, by Ian Jamieson, Faber & Faber, is also useful. And if you are specifically interested in sweet wines, have a look at Liquid gold by Stephen Brooks, published by Constable. Of course, don't neglect the practical side - tasting, and enjoy.
