Positioned in the Wairau Valley, this property is a rare acquisition for the area, offering scale in vineyard, bare land and a developing winery with consent for up to 9,000 tonnes. Currently home to a total canopy of 40ha sauvignon blanc vineyard, the vines are young and showing fantastic yield capability so far. The balance of the flat land offers some further 45ha (subject to survey mapping) suitable for viticulture, while the balance of land is in hill grazing. There is a large, modern family home and potential staff accommodation as well as several storage sheds and farming infrastructure.
The property benefits from a B Class water consent to take 3,880 cubic metres per day for the irrigation of vineyard and general winery use, expiring 1 December 2025, and a 20,000 cubic metre storage reservoir on the hill. The winery offers fantastic processing and storage in an area with no current options for de-juicing or processing fruit, with great scope to develop the site with further capacity. There are modern staff facilities, offices and the option to purchase the winery on its own title if required.
