	Liebfraumilch - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Valckenberg wine company sells their wine produced in the original vineyard, "Liebfrauenstift-Kirchenstück," under the name "MADONNA Liebfraumilch," although ironically it is not legally a Liebfraumilch, but rather a QmP.
		The generic label Liebfraumilch is used to market low quality vintages from anywhere in the Rheinhessen/Nahe area.
		While the term is associated with low quality wine, Liebfraumilch is required by the German Wine Law to be one step above the lowest category, Tafelwein (table wine).

	Guardian \| Food fight on the menu for WTO talks in Cancun
		Liebfraumilch, the drink that singlehandedly destroyed the reputation of the German wine industry, is to be added to a list of traditional European delicacies for which Brussels is seeking global brand protection at next month's world trade talks in Cancun.
		Accusing foreign producers of ripping off the names of some of Europe's most famous foods and wines, the European commission said it was considering seeking protection for a further 600 items on a special register of geographically defined products it wants the World Trade Organisation to recognise.
		The late addition of Liebfraumilch to the list of products Europe claims are in danger of being copied abroad raised eyebrows last night in the drinks industry.

		While British wine buyers still seem to have a hangover from the sugary mass market wines which became popular in the Seventies and Eighties, wine drinkers in the United States are running out of superlatives for the new breed of German wine.
		The reason is really due to the down-market image created by Liebfraumilch, originally a good wine produced by the classic Riesling grape from only one vineyard in the Rheinhessen.
		Liebfraumilch was very successful in the late Seventies and early Eighties.

		But an early indication that Blue Nun today might be a different prospect, came when I was invited to visit their operation, not in Germany, but in the Languedoc in southern France.
		No longer is the Blue Nun label confined to Liebfraumilch (in fact, the "classic" Blue Nun is no longer a Liebfraumilch - more on that later), but the brand now extends to dry German Riesling, French Merlot, Spanish Rosé, and even Australian Shiraz.
		Liebfraumilch is a catch-all name covering huge tracts of Germany, for wines which needn't contain a drop of Riesling.

	Valckenberg
		At that time the name of Liebfraumilch was used by a lot of producers up and down the Rhine River, it became synonymous for Rhine wines.
		Since the Valckenberg families 30 acres would not have been sufficient to produce enough Liebfraumilch to supply the world market, the decision was made for Liebfraumilch to become a regional wine.
		To show a difference between the regional type of Liebfraumilch made by any other producer and the one made by the original producer, Valckenberg has started to use the “MADONNA Liebfraumilch” which is today Germany’s oldest trade mark for wine.

		The golden age of Liebfraumilch in the UK was during the Seventies, before Britain became a serious wine-drinking nation.
		But it was the producers of Liebfraumilch who shot the brand in the foot by flooding the market with a low-quality cheap product after the original Blue Nun boom.

		Pale straw color and a muscat nose, the wine is sweet on the tongue followed by thin vegetal flavors with hints of asparagus.
		That a Liebfraumilch by any other name would be as sweet proved too true as we tasted the next wine:1996 Sichel Blue Nun Qualitatswein ($6.99).
		The body is thin and the taste, although less fruity than the two Liebfraumilchs, has a sweetness reminiscent of clear rock candy.
