ORGANIC 31.8-HA WINERY FOR SALE IN ORVIETO, UMBRIA

Orvieto Wine Estate

In a dominant position in the hills of Orvieto, organic wine estate for sale.

The property is strategically located and spreads over about 31.8 hectares (78.6 acres) of land, mostly covered by vines. The arable land (5.1 ha) is set on a slight hillside and could easily be used to expand the vineyard. The woodland (about 5.0 ha), on the other hand, is mostly used for truffles, registered and fully fenced. An olive grove (about 120 trees) is located a few meters from the farmhouse and allows the production of excellent olive oil.

 

The Orvieto DOC vineyard (22.1 ha) hosts plants of Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon, Grechetto, Chardonnay and Viognier varieties and is exploited to produce about 30,000 bottles of wine a year, preferring quality over quantity. The size of the vineyard would allow in any case to reach a much higher production (up to 150,000 bottles per year).

The winery produces the following wines:

  • Umbria IGT Sparkling Brut: 100% Chardonnay
  • Umbria Bianco IGT: 100% Grechetto
  • Umbria Bianco IGT: 100% Grechetto
  • Umbria Bianco IGT: 70% Chardonnay, 30% Grechetto 30%.
  • Umbria Rosso IGT: 80% Sangiovese, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon
  • Umbria Rosso IGT: 100% Sangiovese

 

 

DESCRIPTION OF THE BUILDINGS

The farmhouse (304 sqm – 3,271 sqft) is on two levels and was entirely renovated in 2018 with Sicilian stones. With the occasion they also opted for the installation of solar panels for the production of hot water and underfloor heating system. The photovoltaic system provides power to the basement. All doors and windows are aluminum double-glazed. The furnishings of the house, which are included in the sale, have also been finely chosen with modern and classy style.

 

On the ground floor is the winemaking cellar (fermentation, storage and changing room for employees) and the living area of the owners’ house, consisting of kitchen with large living room, bedroom and bathroom. The upper floor, on the other hand, houses the tasting room (accessible from the outside and characterized by a glass floor that ensures views of the fermentation room) and the sleeping area of the home consisting of bedroom with bathroom and study corner. The heating plant can be accessed from outside the building.

 

At the back of the house there is then an agricultural warehouse (56 sqm – 602 sqft) to shelter vehicles and equipment for the care of the fields and vines.

WINE CELLAR FOR SALE IN ORVIETO, UMBRIA

Orvieto Wine Cellar

In the hills of Umbria, not far from the medieval town of Orvieto, wine cellar in excellent condition with potential for more than 9,000,000 bottles of wine / year for sale.

The winery is surrounded by a large 12,000 m² gravel plaza that is used for maneuvering vehicles during loading and unloading operations.

ESTATE WITH HOBBY VINEYARDS FOR SALE IN ORVIETO

Vinea Volsiniensis

The property covers approximately 15.6 hectares (38.5 acres) of land, split among woodland (5.3 ha), arable land (5.7 ha) and vineyards (4.5 ha). The latter are divided between two poderi: the first one close to the cellar, the other just 15-minute drive away. These vineyards, subject to the approval of the competent authorities, could be partly registered as Orvieto DOC, while part of the arable land could be used to plant new vines.

The wood is mainly made up of coppice Turkey oaks, and its value derives from the fact that it is included in the regional truffle map which means that it can be partially fenced (up to 3 ha) to be used as truffle harvesting ground.

 

The cellar is no longer in business since 2017 - 2018: the vineyards are pretty old (some of them dating back to the 1970s) and need replanting to bring the production back to regime. When operational, the winery produced the following IGT wines:

  • Umbria Rosso IGT: 100% Cabernet Sauvignon
  • Umbria Rosso IGT: 100% Sangiovese
  • Umbria Rosso IGT: Sangiovese 40%, Merlot 40%, Ciliegiolo 10%, Canaiolo 10%
  • Umbria Bianco IGT: 60% Verdicchio, 40% Grechetto di Todi

 

The wine cellar (360 m² – 3,874 ft²) is located at the center of the property and is made of a two-story building with insulated masonry and colored plastered walls. The building is realized in reinforced concrete with pitched (30°) roof. The building complies with all the criteria imposed for the construction of a cellar, and is thus free on three of its sides while being partially underground on the fourth so to have a sufficient thermal insulation for the ageing process.

The ground floor is split into two areas: the bigger one is the one where grapes are unloaded, processed and the wine aged and bottled; the smaller one instead includes the office for the business. The first floor, partially without tiling but already equipped with plumbing and electrical system, houses a temporary storage room capable of holding up to 20,000 bottles (150 hl). Given the presence of systems and the non-trivial surface of the upper floor, one could also convert it either into a small private home or into a tasting room with administrative offices on the side.
