26 Jahre Eichelmann: Der umfassendste und kritischste Guide zu Deutschlands Weinen. Er ist der erfolgreichste deutsche Weinführer und gilt als die kritischste Stimme zum deutschen Wein: Was Winzer nicht immer lieben, das schätzen die Leser. Nun liegt die neue Bestandsaufnahme deutschen Weins vor: „Eichelmann 2026 Deutschlands Weine" bietet eine Einführung in die deutschen Weinanbaugebiete, Porträts der besten Erzeuger - darunter 65 neue Erzeuger und 274 biologisch arbeitende Weingüter - und die Bewertung und Beschreibung ihrer Weine. Eichelmann 2026 präsentiert 845 Weingüter und 9.000 Weine, die vom bewährten Verkoster-Team ausgewählt wurden. Die Weine werden im international üblichen 100-Punkte-System bewertet, das Gerhard Eichelmann in Deutschland eingeführt hatte, dazu findet man Preis- und Alkoholangaben, Weine mit besonders gutem Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis sind hervorgehoben. Jedes Weingut wird für seine Gesamtleistung mit bis zu 5 Sternen eingestuft. Wichtig für den Verbraucher ist, dass dabei nicht nur Spitzenerzeugnisse vorgestellt und zur Betriebsbewertung herangezogen werden, sondern alle Weine, auch die Einstiegsqualitäten (die Buchausgabe, gebunden, kostet 39,95 Euro).
