AngularJS access Data from Resource Query

I have a Jersey Rest Application which I d'like to access with a AngularJS application.

I have defined the resource as follows:

Service:

angular.service('Wine', function ($resource) {
    return $resource('/myserver/rest/wines/:wineId', {}, {
        update: {method:'PUT'},
        'query': {method: 'GET', isArray: true}
    });
});

Controller:

function WineListCtrl(Wine) {
    this.wines = Wine.query();
}

In Firebug I can see the result of this GET-Request:

{"wine":[{"country":"USA","description":"With hints of ginger and spice, this wine makes an excellent complement to light appetizer and dessert fare for a holiday gathering.","grapes":"Pinot Noir","id":"9","name":"BLOCK NINE","picture":"block_nine.jpg","region":"California","year":"2009"},{"country":"Argentina","description":"Solid notes of black currant blended with a light citrus make this wine an easy pour for varied palates.","grapes":"Pinot Gris","id":"11","name":"BODEGA LURTON","picture":"bodega_lurton.jpg","region":"Mendoza","year":"2011"},{"country":"France","description":"The aromas of fruit and spice give one a hint of the light drinkability of this lovely wine, which makes an excellent complement to fish dishes.","grapes":"Grenache / Syrah","id":"1","name":"CHATEAU DE SAINT COSME","picture":"saint_cosme.jpg","region":"Southern Rhone / Gigondas","year":"2009"},{"country":"France","description":"Though dense and chewy, this wine does not overpower with its finely balanced depth and structure.

In my html page I d'like to access the content as following:

<ul ng:controller="WineListCtrl">
    <li ng:repeat="wine in wines">
        <a href='#/wines/{{ wine.id }}'>{{ wine.name }}</a>
    </li>
</ul>

Sadly there are no results showing up in the UI (although the JSON Result seems to be okay and there is no error on the Browser Console).

If I make an alert like

alert(this.wines.length)

I get 0 as result.

Would be great to get some help of you guys...

Your first problem is that you're assigning to this and not the scope. If you don't assign to the scope, your data won't be available for binding in the view. So inject the $scope into your controller and assign it the wines attribute:

function WineListCtrl($scope, Wine) {
  $scope.wines = Wine.query();
}

You have another problem though. The ngResource module expects the result of call to query to be an array, but you're actually returning an object:

{wine: [an array of wines]}

So unless you remove the key from the server-side response, your ng-repeat might have to look something like:

<li ng-repeat="wine in wines.wine">...</li>
