Site
This
offering is probably the best deal I’ve ever seen in 30 years of
Oregon vineyard property brokerage. The owner has more than $8 million in hard
cash in the project. We are now offering it for $3.5 million due to health
and financial pressure. This parcel is west of
North Valley Rd.
which separates the Yamhill Carlton AVA from the Ribbon Ridge AVA in
Yamhill
County
It has frontage on
Laughlin Rd.
It is the former home of Tony Soter’s “Beacon Hill ” label , which was quite well reviewed and received. (See http://www.sotervineyards.com/thewines.php
and scroll down) The site is approximately 30 miles southwest of
Portland
and in the middle of the much-travelled wine routes of
Yamhill
County
. The views down the
Chehalem
Valley
from this property are gorgeous. This property is just around the corner
from Beaux Freres, Brickhouse, Willakenzie Estates, and a number of newer
vineyards in the area, including the new Fairsing Vineyards.
Land & Vineyard
The parcel is 44.46 acres total. The land
rises in a south slope from about 220’ to 370’ and the SCS maps show
primarily Willakenzie soil type, which is widely grown upon in this area.
See maps.
8 acres of the vineyard were planted in 1988 and consist of 5 acres of
own-rooted Pommard and Wadenswil clones of Pinot noir, and 3 acres of
Chardonnay. 13 acres of the vineyard are in
Dijon
clones of Pinot noir grafted to phylloxera-resistant and devigorating
rootstocks. 1 acre is planted to Dijon Chardonnay clone on resistant
rootstock. 1.5 acres are planted to Gewurztraminer and Riesling. The vines
are meticulously maintained. All vineyard equipment is included. Please
see list.
Improvements
The17,000 sq. ft. brand new state-of-the-art
winery is constructed with old world style by an engineer. It is a
gravity-flow, 3 level facility with barrel and bottling and storage on the
lowest level, crush and fermentation on the main level along with tasting
and beautiful, massive stone fireplace, 35+-‘ high ceiling tasting and
hospitality room, with kitchen plumbed and other amenities for
entertaining and sales. The upper level is designed for large offices,
dining and meeting areas, and possibly guest rooms. All levels are tied
together with a massive central stair well around the wineries main
blending tank. All of the equipment is essentially new and includes all
the things you’d want, including GAI bottling line, Europress, Rauch
destemmer, etc. Please see the list. This is a truly classy and classic
facility for an
Oregon
winery.
The main house is a custom built 2,319 sq. ft. two-level home built in
2000 with an office and bedroom suite and garage and general purpose room
on the lower floor, and two bedrooms and two baths, great room with
gourmet kitchen on the upper floor looking north over the vineyards to the
Beacon House. That structure is a one-bedroom, 454 sq. ft. cozy cabin-like
structure with a small kitchen, bath and sitting room with a rustic feel
and a wood stove. As well as holding a homesite approval, it is an
appealing place to house guests or to get away from the world. The
implication of the homesite approval is that by making this structure
non-residential, a new stick dwelling of any size could be built upon the
property without further interaction with the County.
Location
22040 NW Ridge Rd.
Gaston
,
OR
978119. The property is at the intersection of
NW Ridge Rd.
and
Laughlin Rd.
just west of its intersection with
North Valley Rd.
Price
$3,500,000. There is an existing $1.5
million loan with Farm Credit that is current and could probably be
assumed. So, $2 million cash above the loan would buy a property that has been built up for
over $8 million and includes wine inventory on top of that. Truly a
deal-of-a-lifetime. Please email
for value analysis.
