OPPORTUNITY HIGHLIGHTS:
A unique opportunity to own Heart & Hands Wine Company, one of the crown jewels of the Northeast wine industry. This highly acclaimed boutique vineyard and winery is situated on rare limestone bedrock near Cayuga Lake in the picturesque Finger Lakes region of New York. Heart & Hands is a well-established operation known for its outstanding Pinot Noir, expressive cool-climate whites, and rare esoteric varieties. The winery has earned critical acclaim and a loyal following for its sustainably farmed estate vineyard, limestone-influenced terroir, and meticulously crafted wines.
The offering includes the land, vineyard, winery production facility, tasting room, equipment, and on-site living quarters. The winery maintains an inventory of current, recently produced, and investment-grade library wines, which will transfer to the buyer at a mutually agreed value separate from the purchase price. Retiring owners are committed to a smooth transition, making this a turnkey opportunity for the right buyer. This is an ideal opportunity for an experienced vintner, wine entrepreneur, or lifestyle buyer seeking an established, high-end brand with growth potential in an emerging world-class wine region.
