His own project took shape in 2003, when he leased his first vineyard on the Tuniberg—an old parcel that became the core of his winemaking identity. The early years were nomadic and artisanal: grapes fermented in the cellars of fellow winemakers, then in a small gewölbekeller in Rheinweiler, later in a former butcher’s shop adapted as a winery.
Since 2011, the estate has found its home in the industrial area of Rheinweiler, a quiet space where time moves slowly and every decision is guided by respect for the fruit. Here, Jürgen—Geisenheim‑trained oenologist and Master of Wine—crafts wines shaped by precision, calmness, and a deep sense of place.
Von der Mark remains a small, devoted estate, where the producer’s personal journey meets the mineral tension of the Tuniberg and a philosophy rooted in authenticity. Read more
