Property Description

PROPERTY A. (The Whole)

This is a unique opportunity, never before available, to purchase a sought after family Estate located in the heart of the world renown Marlborough grape growing area in New Zealand. The Estates form a self supporting and independent viable unit which has earned recognition throughout New Zealand and world wide, offering tremendous potential for the future through either continued trading as is, or through continuing expansion.

The Estate was established in 1989 and land totals 176 acres of prime producing soils spread across the floor of the Omaka Valley, with stunning views and a superb location. The 176 acres are divided into four titles, 1 title of 122 acres on Falveys Road and a further three titles (a 15 acre and two 20 acre titles), totalling 55 acres on Kennedys Road. The 15 acres vineyard on it’s own title is available as a separate purchase.

Vineyard plantings consist of approx 134 acres of desirable cool climate grapes including Sauvignon Blanc, Semillon, Chardonnay, Pinot Gris, Pinot Noir, Syrah and Merlot. All plants are on phylloxera resistant root stock . The grapes have consistently produced high quality medal winning wines.

On the Kennedys Road site is the Estate winery. This was purpose built in 1994-95 and has been subsequently extended. It is equipped with modern equipment allowing medal winning wines to be produced using traditional methods. The winery currently has the capacity for 600 tons, but could be easily expanded to produce wines from other vineyard grapes. All plant and machinery is in excellent condition and has been purchased in the last few years. The current stocks of bulk and bottled wine are included in the sale, as is the crop on the vines (if applicable due to the time of the year) so giving an immediate opportunity for income.

Also on the Kennedys Road title is the family residence. The Award designed home is a four bedroom, three bathroom home, built of cedar and brick in 1990. It has been carefully maintained and is enhanced by the in ground swimming pool and large gardens, admirably suited for out door living.

On the Falveys Road site (2Km from Kennedys Road) is the aircraft runway, used for applying winter fertilizer to the Omaka Springs Estates and adjoining vineyards. This is the major vineyard with different soil types.

The current owners were pioneers of the New Zealand olive industry. The Estates include one of the largest commercial olive groves in the country, over 2,000 trees, and form the largest collection of varieties that is available for purchase within New Zealand. All trees were imported from accredited nurseries and form the basis of an exciting and promising future industry.
