Valckenberg

The wine merchant Peter Joseph Valckenberg (1764-1837) bought the historic vineyards of the famous single vineyard Liebfrauenstift-Kirchenstück in Worms (Rheinhessen) in the course of the Napoleonic secularisation in 1808. The "P.J. Valckenberg" vineyard developed from this. This is still partly owned by his descendants today and has since been renamed Liebfrauenstift. The Valckenberg company owns the sole right to use the traditional brand name "Madonna" for the wine Liebfrauenmilch. It is one of the most successful branded wines in the world. In the company's wine trade division, German wines from renowned wineries are sold to around 40 countries worldwide, the main market being Asia, especially China and Japan.

There is a vast number of sources on the web where one can acquire knowledge about wine. But none has the scope, timeliness and accuracy of the information in the encyclopaedia at wein.plus. I use it regularly and rely on it.
