Philipp Uehlinger

Wine has long been more than a passion – it’s a way of life. From my earliest memories at the family table to decades immersed in the world of fine wine, I’ve come to appreciate not only the craftsmanship behind each bottle, but the emotion and meaning it holds for those who truly value it. Since 1991, I’ve curated, collected, and connected with some of the world’s finest wines – always with an eye for excellence and longevity.

With over 30 years of expertise, a trusted global network, and deep heritage in the wine industry, I offer a bespoke service designed for collectors and connoisseurs who expect the highest standards. Your collection is handled with absolute discretion, precision, and care – so you enjoy the experience without compromise.

Whether you’re expanding a private cellar, investing in liquid assets, or preserving a legacy for the next generation, I offer more than storage – I offer peace of mind. You own not just exceptional wines, but a timeless asset that matures in value and meaning with every passing year.

your wine, my priority

Rainer Schönfeld

I was born in 1969 in Mülheim a.d. Ruhr, grew up in Düsseldorf and came to wine in 1994 during my doctoral studies through a laboratory colleague from Italy. Cooking and wine have remained my passion ever since. For me, wine is a pleasure with which I deal as a hedonist and connoisseur every day. As a scientist and chemist, I also follow with interest the research on the chemistry of wine. A sound scientific knowledge and the mystical experience wine can provide are not a contradiction for me!

I lived and worked on three different continents. I used the experience to become intensively involved with foreign cuisines and the regional wines. I like to spend my vacations in wine regions in Germany, the rest of Europe and all over the world. Professionally, I work in a technology industry that has no connections to wine.

As a lover and connoisseur of aged wines, I deal intensively with many topics, especially the handling of awesome and sometimes very old wines. I like to share my knowledge and write from time to time for Weinkeller Schweiz.
