Join the Indiana-Germany Business Council and the International Center as we welcome the 74th German Wine Queen, Ms. Katrin Lang, and the 72nd Baden Wine Queen, Ms. Jessica Himmelsbach, to Indiana.
About the German Wine Queen:
The German Wine Queen (German: Deutsche Weinkönigin) is the representative of the German wine industry. The Wine Queen is supported by two princesses, forming together the German Wine Ambassadors. She is elected, for a period of one year. The title is competed for by the regional wine queens of the thirteen German wine regions. The German Wine Queen must first be a wine queen of one of the German wine regions for a year prior.
The German Wine Queen competition is arranged by the German Wine Institute ( DWI or German: Deutsche Weininstitut). Selection of both the German Wine Queen and each of the regional wine queens is based on a knowledge of oenology and winemaking technology, quick wit and eloquence, as well as proficiency in foreign languages and a knowledge of the wine export business.
During their one-year term of office, the Wine Queen and Wine Princesses advertise German wine at trade fairs, wine festivals, and other events. The Wine Queen, in particular, is the ambassador of German wine-growers and their products at over 250 appearances in Germany and abroad.
