Organic 170 Ha Wine Estate For Sale In Arezzo, Tuscany

On the hills of Arezzo, in a private and panoramic position, wine estate of 170.7 hectares for sale. The property includes several buildings (over 1,000 sqm) that include several guest apartments and the wine cellar, as well as warehouses and a farmhouse to be renovated. The vineyard (16.4 ha) is worked with organic methods and produces about 50,000 bottles of wine a year.

DESCRIPTION OF THE BUILDINGS, STATE AND FINISHES
The main body of the property consists of two buildings that house the Agriturismo apartments, the wine-making cellar and various storage rooms for storing products and sheltering equipment.

Building A (590 sqm – 6,348 sqft, 11 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms) forms the heart of the agritourism and houses four independent apartments as well as various rooms for storage.
- Apt. N°1: dining room, living room, kitchen, offices, five bedrooms and three bathrooms;
- Apt. N°2: living room with kitchenette, bedroom and bathroom;
- Apt. N°3: living room with open kitchen, three bedrooms and two bathrooms;
- Apt. N°4: living room with kitchenette, two bedrooms and bathroom.

Building B (420 sqm – 4,519 sqft, 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms), on the other hand, houses the wine-making cellar on two floors (ground and basement, equipped and fully operational) plus three apartments on the upper floor.
- Apt. N°5: entrance hall, living room with open kitchen and loft, bedroom and bathroom;
- Apt. N°6: living room with open kitchen and loft, bedroom and bathroom;

A few steps from the two buildings are then two agricultural warehouses (89 sqm – 958 sqft) used as a shelter for tools and vehicles.

Part of the main building is also the 10 × 5 m swimming pool placed on a terrace paved in terracotta tiles from which one can admire the surrounding countryside.

EXTERIOR
The farm stretches for about 170.7 hectares (421.8 acres), covered for the most part by woods (133.4 ha) that surround the cultivated fields and guarantee the absence of contamination from nearby properties, ensuring full compliance with organic regulations (certification the farm has had since 1994). A small private pond allows irrigating the fields.

The backbone of the farm is the vineyard (about 16.4 ha). The main variety is Sangiovese (almost 70% of the total vines), but over the years the winery has recovered a now forgotten grape that was reinstated in 2017 in the list of native Tuscan grape varieties. A small Merlot vineyard (about 1.0 ha) is programmed for grafting with Sangiovese vines. Annual production is currently about 50,000 bottles of wine, taking into account, however, that part of the Sangiovese vineyard (about 3.0 ha) will not enter full production until 2025/2026.
- Chianti DOCG: 100% Sangiovese
- Toscana Rosso IGT: Sangiovese 50%, native variety 50%.
- Toscana Rosso IGT: native variety 100%.

The olive grove (1,600 trees of Moraiolo, Leccino and Frantoio varieties) allows the production of about 2,000 kg of excellent extra virgin olive oil per year.

The arable land (about 10.6 ha) is now largely covered by woods with timber plants (alders, hazelnuts and cherries). In any case, an assessment could be made of the material that could be obtained from any cutting, so as to understand whether it might be more profitable to clear the land to plant new vineyards.
