This useful sized property, comprising a total area of 12.39 hectares, is more or less rectangular in shape and spread over three river terraces. It has a vineyard trellis area of 8.24 hectares, in 4 varieties, planted1997 - 2004. It has a wide range of clones and rootstocks presenting an attractive prospect from a wine making perspective. The fruit produced has a reputation for being of high quality.
The soils are suited to grape production and a considerable area is planted in the region.
A very good irrigation water supply is sourced from the Weka Plains Irrigation scheme, in which there is a shareholding. Additional water is sourced from a well on the property, with county water also available.
There is a fixed frost fan strategically positioned on the "main" terrace, which is supplemented with a Tow n Blow on the other terraces.
There is a sound 4 bay shed with 3 bays fully secure and with a concrete floor. There is a second building comprising a cottage/storage facility.
This is a fully operational mature vineyard. There is potential to reconfigure the varietal mix. There is also potential to operate a micro winery on site.
There is excellent scope to consider the establishment of a residence on the property. There are a number of tremendous building sites with stunning views. The location is attractive from many angles including proximity to schools, as well as services and amenities provided by nearby Amberley, Rangiora and Christchurch. Recreational opportunities are readily accessed including Hanmer Springs and Kaikoura.
This presents a great opportunity to acquire a benchmark vineyard and establishing a special residential setting.
Further detailed information is available. Inspection is by appointment.
