GERMANY (Neustadt) – Prior to the election of the 62. German Wine Queen, the German Wine Institute (DWI – Deutsches Weininstitut) invited the candidates from all German wine-growing regions to a three-day preparation seminar in Neustadt an der Weinstrasse. All 13 wine-growing regions are sending their local wine queen in as a candidate in the competition for the highest German wine crown.

The focus of this seminar is a camera and rhetoric training, through which the young ladies are prepared for their on-stage moments in front of thousands of people in the Neustadt Saalbau. A style consultation and photo shoot was also part of the program.

The tv station SWR also informed the girls about how the election will take place and Sonja Christ, who is the current German Wine Queen from the Moselle, gave useful tips for the upcoming election. Holger Wienpahl, who will be the host of the pre-competition and the finale, also got to know the female candidates while drinking a glass of wine with all of them.

The mood among the competitors was amazing. They are all looking forward to the pre-election in the Saalbau of Neustadt on Saturday, October 2, 2010, which will be broadcast the next day at 2 PM on the SWR tv channel. The big finale will begin on Friday, October 8, 2010, at 08:15 PM in the same place and will be broadcast at 10 PM also on the SWR channel. (aw.yoopress)
