i. Biography
Andreas Durst first appears in 2009 as a photographer at Durst Wein in Bockenheim an der Weinstraße, and from that point his public profile remains closely tied to Durst Wein in Bockenheim an der Weinstraße.
The Path
Bundeswehr, Universität der Bundeswehr München, and Führungsakademie der Bundeswehr set the frame for Andreas Durst’s training, and the sequence points to a career built on preparation and progression. He entered the Bundeswehr at Panzerbataillon 123 in Kümmersbruck (from 1985), starting with practical responsibility at ground level. He then served as zugführer at Panzerbataillon 153, 4. Kompanie in Koblenz (1987–1988), before taking on broader responsibility as zugführer und s2-offizier at Panzerbataillon 423, 2. Kompanie in Brück (1992–1993). The progression continued with his time as kompaniechef at Panzerbataillon 423, 6. Kompanie in Brück (1993–1995), a role that makes the arc of leadership explicit. From 1996–1998, he was ordonnanzoffizier beim vorsitzenden des militärausschusses der nato, General Klaus Naumann at NATO in Brüssel, Belgien. That posting places Andreas Durst within the formal rhythms of NATO life and extends the record beyond the local chain of command. Read together, the years mark a disciplined itinerary: training, field command, staff responsibility, and a final appointment in Brussels. Today, Andreas is brigadegeneral im streitkräfteamt (since 2024) and winzer of Durst Wein (since 2009). The two titles sit in different registers but are held together in the same public profile: one in the language of service, the other in the practice of winegrowing. That combination gives his work a dual frame, command on one side and cultivation on the other.
