Commercial Wine Making Opportunity Orvieto Umbria

Welcome to the picturesque hills of Umbria, where an extraordinary opportunity awaits you. Nestled just a short drive from the medieval town of Orvieto, this immaculate winery offers a captivating blend of history, craftsmanship, and unlimited potential.

To accommodate both employees and guests, four bathrooms are conveniently available. An apartment awaits on the top floor, formerly staff accommodation,  spanning 127 square metres (1,366 square feet).

To enchant visitors and facilitate sales, a dedicated tasting room measuring 124 square metres (1,334 square feet) awaits, adorned with a charming sales corner. Ensuring seamless functionality, a technical room housing the building’s systems spans 24 square metres.

Extending beyond the main building, you’ll discover two expansive warehouses crafted from iron and enveloped in PVC sheeting, spanning 600 square metres (6,456 square feet) and 525 square metres (5,649 square feet) respectively. These structures serve as an ideal shelter for vehicles and essential tools.
