Lena Endesfelder (born 30 December 1992)[1] from Mehring in the wine region of Moselle in Rhineland-Palatinate is the German Wine Queen for 2016/2017. She was elected as the 68th German Wine Queen in 2016 in Mainz as the successor to Josefine Schlumberger. She also became the 12th wine queen from the Moselle region and the third to come from the village of Mehring. The two Wine Princesses elected for twelve months alongside her were Christina Schneider from Nordheim in Franconia and Mara Walz from Ensingen in Württemberg. In that year, the ceremony on the occasion of the 200th anniversary of the wine region of Rhenish Hesse did not take place as normal in Neustadt an der Weinstraße but in the wine city of Mainz.[2][3][4]
