In the hills of Umbria, not far from the medieval town of Orvieto, winery in excellent condition with potential for more than 9,000,000 bottles of wine / year for sale. Built between 2008 and 2010 in reinforced concrete and with a project designed to ensure maximum production efficiency, the winery could easily serve as a cantina sociale due to the large production volume achievable. The winery features 23.0 ha of Umbria IGT vineyards.
The winery is about 2 km from a small town with all basic services, while the historic center of Orvieto is about 10 km away and has all services (banks, post offices, offices...). Also about 10 km from the property is the A1 highway junction from which most of the cities of Italy (from Rome to Milan) can be reached in a short time.
DESCRIPTION OF THE BUILDINGS
The winery (4,392 sqm – 47,259 sqft in total) is a large modern concrete building, laid over several floors and designed to ensure maximum production efficiency. The winemaking area (2,650 sqm – 28,514 sqft) consists essentially of three parts that would include fermentation vats and tanks and a warehouse for storing the finished product. An external ramp, on the other hand, leads to a large underground storage area for equipment (800 sqm – 8,619 sqft).
The reserved area for employees (310 sqm – 3,336 sqft) includes two warehouses, two locker rooms with service bathrooms, and a canteen room.
The administrative offices (356 sqm – 3,831 sqft) are distributed between the basement and ground floor and include a customer waiting room and reception area, laboratory, office, five offices, archives, multipurpose room, meeting area, and four bathrooms for employees and guests.
On the top floor of the building, with access via an internal staircase, is an apartment (127 sqm – 1,366 sqft) formerly intended as a janitor's dwelling: the unit consists of an entrance/living room with two terraces, kitchen, three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and laundry room.
A tasting room with sales corner (124 sqm – 1,334 sqft) and a technical room for the building's systems (24 sqm) complete the building.
The cellar's large spaces, combined with the production efficiency, guarantee the winery a production potential of about 9,000,000 bottles/year. This would allow the winery to work privately with its own vineyards or as a social winery (cantina sociale) with grapes contributed by local producers who do not have adequate facilities to produce their own wine.
Not far from the main body, beyond the winery's large forecourt, there are also two warehouses (600 sqm – 6,456 sqft and 525 sqm – 5,649 sqft, respectively) made of iron and buffered with PVC sheeting, ideal as a vehicle and tool shelter.
Finally, a metal shed (127 sqm – 1,366 sqft) is located a short distance from the cellar.
EXTERIORS
In total, the property covers about 28.0 hectares (69.2 acres) of land. The winery is surrounded by a large 12,000 sqm gravel plaza that is used for maneuvering vehicles during loading and unloading operations. On the west side of the winery, a second apron (800 sqm) gives access to all the basement rooms of the facility, facilitating product transport operations.
Above the winery are then a plot of woodland (about 4.0 ha) and unused land (about 1.2 ha).
The property features 23.0 hectares of vineyards, entirely registered as Umbria IGT and set around the cellar, in a very convenient location:
- Vineyards surface: 23.0 hectares (56.8 acres)
- Varieties: Barbera, Pinot Bianco, Vermentino, Pinot Grigio, Viognier
- Altitude and exposure: 340 – 400 m asl (northeast)
- Production potential: up to 3,075 hl ( 410,000 bottles) / year
