German Wine Queen Ms. Eva Brockmann

The German Wine Queen (Deutsche Weinkönigin) is a long-established beauty contest that has been held since 1947. Candidates selected from 13 of Germany's major wine-producing regions gather together to decide who will be the female ambassador for German wine. The contest is a popular national event, with public broadcasting cameras following the contest.

The 75th German Wine Queen, Eva Brockmann, will be visiting Japan. Please enjoy the German wines recommended by Eva, who is originally from Haimbach, Aschaffenburg, Germany.
