The winery is located in the municipality of Uelversheim (Nierstein area) in the German wine-growing region of Rheinhessen. It was founded in 1548 by Balthasar Neumer through the purchase of acreage and vineyards from neighbouring monasteries and the Counts of Leiningen. It was shaped into its present form by Jakob Neumer III (1876-1960). His son Walter Jakob Neumer († 2005) took over the wine and arable farming business after returning home from the Second World War (1939-1945). His daughter Lucia, née Neumer, and her husband Hubertus Weinmann took over the management in 1991. Since 2011, the eldest son Theo has been responsible as cellar master.
The vineyards cover 60 hectares of vines in the single vineyard sites Aulenberg and Tafelstein (Uelversheim), Siliusbrunnen and Tafelstein (Dienheim), Ölberg and Herrgottspfad (Gau-Odernheim), as well as Schloß (Herrnsheim). They are planted with the white wine varieties Pinot Blanc, Riesling, Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Silvaner, Huxelrebe and Gewürztraminer, as well as the red wine varieties Pinot Noir and Dornfelder.

Serious sources on the internet are rare - and Wine lexicon from wein.plus is one such source. When researching for my articles, I regularly consult the wein.plus encyclopaedia. There I get reliable and detailed information.
