Vineyard & Winery Details
Current use is as a winery which was originally licensed in 2012
Food is served at the winery which is prepared in the mobile commercial kitchen, plus they can do wine dinners. They tied the food service trailer to the winery to give them the flexibility of cooking and offering food, without the need to build a permanent commercially licensed kitchen on premise. This is a problem with smaller wineries with limited space and funding to build a permanent facility. The trailer is mobile, so can be used for offsite events as well. Opportunities for B&B, Catered wine dinners, etc.
Available by separate negotiation is inventory which includes:
Current yield varies. 380 vines on 4’ x 6’ spacing. Grapes have been purchased from: Maggie Malick Wine Caves, Breaux, Horton, Veramar, Tarara, as well as some out of state juice.
Capacity - There is a difference between capacity and how much they have been making. They have built up their facilities over time, so have grown into the spaces. They usually processed 8, or so, tons each year. This was based on how much time they wanted to put into the winery each year, not to conflict with their full time jobs.
This is inventory as of November 2017, available by separate negotiation, but will change as they sell and/or bottle:
