Livorno

In a scenic location on the island of Capraia, with views of the sea and the TuscanArchipelago, organic wine estate for sale. The property was established in the early 2000s when the then-owner undertook a skillful restoration of the land, which had long been maintained by the “inmates” of the island’s prison. The terraces were restored, and over the years, approximately 5.0 hectares of vineyards were planted. The grape varieties are typical of this region of Tuscany (Aleatico, Vermentino, Sangiovese, Colorino, and Ciliegiolo) and yield approximately 20,000 bottles of wine per year.

• Toscana IGT Bianco: 100% Ansonica
• Toscana IGT Bianco: 100% Vermentino
• Toscana IGT Rosso: 45% Colorino, 45% Ciliegiolo, 10% Sangiovese
• Toscana IGT Rosé: 100% Aleatico
• Toscana IGT Passito: 100% Aleatico

The wine cellar was established in what was once the prison workshop (previously already used as a winery) and could be expanded through the renovation of other parts of the prison.

It is important to note that the winery owns both its own land (approximately 5.5 ha) and leased plots (22.8 ha). The winery itself is housed in a building owned by the municipality, which has granted the company a 40-year lease (expiring in 2053).

Services for daily needs (including schools) are available in the town of Capraia (3 km; 10 min). The ferry service connects the island to the mainland with a stop in Livorno (about 3 hours 30 minutes), and from there you can easily travel throughout Tuscany. Pisa airport is about half an hour from Livorno and offers international flights year-round.

On the hills of Cecina, a few kilometers from the sea and in a panoramic position, farmhouse to be completed for sale. The property includes, in addition to the farmhouse, an outbuilding and approved plan for the construction of garage and swimming pool (for a total of over 600 m² and 7 bedrooms).

EXTERIOR

The house is located on a hill, surrounded by about 50.7 hectares (125.3 acres) of land. The garden (yet to be realized) should have an area of about 2,000 sqm and would be located around the farmhouse, framed by the olive trees on the property (about 2.2 ha in total). Portions of arable land (3.6 ha) scattered around the estate would allow the planting of new crops, including a vineyard that would enjoy the excellent climate mitigated by the nearby Tyrrhenian Sea.

The rest of the property (about 44.7 ha), on the other hand, is covered with tall trees that provide privacy and offer interesting opportunities for relaxing walks in the green, especially in summer.

Roughly 5 km from Bolgheri, in the heart of the renowned wine production area, winery with 30.0 ha of vineyards (15.0 ha Bolgheri Rosso DOC + 5.0 ha Bolgheri DOC Vermentino + 10.0 ha Toscana IGT), modern wine cellar and ample house to be completed, ideal both as a private residence and as a starting point for an Agriturismo.

The estate owns directly 15.0 hectares of vineyards, while the remaining 16.0 hectares are rented from a third party with a contract until 2043. Automatic renewal of the contract has been agreed since costs for planting rights and operations have been paid by those who currently manage and use the land (when originally rented the plot of land was not covered in vineyards).
