Vineyard with poolMinerve (34)

LOCATION: In the heart of the Minervois and the renowned Cru La Livinière appellation, 30 minutes from Narbonne or Carcassonne, 45 minutes from motorways or an airport. The environment is wild and particularly calm, in an atmosphere of Mediterranean scrubland.
DESCRIPTION: Complete, profitable wine-growing property, comprising 46 ha of land in a single block, 34 ha of which is planted with organic and HVE3 vines, with a group of buildings facing south, comprising :
A Maison de Maître dating from 1868 in very good condition with central heating, on 3 levels of 140 m2 each, with living rooms and 2 offices on the ground floor, 4 bedrooms on the 1st floor and a very large loft on the top floor under a magnificent roof structure. There is also a swimming pool area on one side.
An independent 97 m2 flat with 2 bedrooms could be used as a gîte or for a caretaker.
A 367 m2 wine-making cellar, with 3,000 hl of vats in all, including 2,250 hl of epoxy-coated, temperature-controlled concrete, with the rest in stainless steel and enamelled steel. A 58 m2 storage area, a 40 m2 workshop and a 26 m2 garage.
50 m from this complex is a large, insulated, air-conditioned storage cellar for bottles and barrels, measuring 374 m2, with an 89 m2 upper floor used as a reception room for seminars and other events. This space is used for reception, tasting and sales to professional and private customers.
Another separate operating building has been built for trading purposes. It is currently empty, apart from the farm equipment, which is protected inside. It has a floor area of 430 m2, with high ceilings and a reinforced slab. It is fully insulated and enclosed. Level +1 is 212 m2, and level +2 is 100 m2. They can be converted for all types of business or company accommodation. There is also a 92 m2 shed and an 81 m2 garage with an 81 m2 upper floor.
THE LAND: There are 34 ha of organic and HVE3 vines, 17 ha of which are Syrah, followed by Grenache noir, Carignan, Cinsault, Mourvèdre and Bourboulenc. The remaining 12 ha is woodland, moorland and garrigue.
MANAGEMENT: This estate is constantly in search of elegance, and an artist who is a friend of the family even exhibits his sculptures here. From the vine to the bottling, everything is of the highest quality. The range of wines includes all 3 colours, and the estate currently sells around 180,000 bottles, many of which are mentioned in the best wine guides. The wines are marketed mainly for export, followed by the on-trade, wholesalers and the cellar. Sales and results are substantial. Profitability is high. All the cellar and growing equipment is included in the sale.
WHAT WE THINK: This property will win you over with the quality of its wines, its turnover and its very sheltered setting. It offers a privileged living environment. The spacious, high-quality buildings still offer plenty of scope for extension.
