liebfraumilch

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'german wine' is the definition.
'liebfraumilch' can be an answer for 'wine' (liebfraumilch is a kind of wine). I'm not sure about the 'german' bit.

'i hear film club distributed' is the wordplay.
'distributed' indicates anagramming the letters.
'i'+'hear'+'film'+'club'='ihearfilmclub'
'ihearfilmclub' anagrammed gives 'LIEBFRAUMILCH'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for liebfraumilch that I've seen before include "Cheap blended Rhine wine for the export market" , "German white wine" , "Light white Rhine wine" , "Cheapish white wine from the Rhine region" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
