We are pleased to announce Phase Two of our Vineyard Country Club at the Calitina Wine Resort.
Latest Update: Only One Malbec Vineyard Estate Available!
The Calitina Vineyard Country Club, Phase Two is a unique opportunity to own a Malbec vineyard estate at the Calitina Wine Resort in San Rafael, Mendoza. This vineyard produced a Gold Medal winning wine from its first harvest in 2006.
This beautiful estate parcel is approximately 2.8 hectares (7 acres) including a 25 x 35 meter building site (875 square meters or 9,415 square feet) that is fully provisioned with underground utilities including city water and electricity. The vineyard inside this parcel is approximately 2.4 hectares (6 acres) of four-year old Malbec vines that are certified organic for the USA, Europe and Argentina.
On this vineyard estate the municipality of San Rafael has given their provisional approval to build a residential villa that could also be operated as a boutique hotel. Your custom-designed villa will be surrounded by vineyards with views of the olive groves, fruit orchards and gardens with the Andes foothills in the background. One architect we recommend has created preliminary plans for a 260 square meter (2,800 square feet) Mendoza-style villa with three guest rooms, a separate owner’s suite, gourmet kitchen, dining room, living area and library, wine cellar, spacious outdoor galleries, swimming pool, and a brick parilla for an authentic Argentine asado.
As a Calitina Vineyard Country Club owner, you can enjoy all the amenities of our resort including the opportunity to make your own personalized Malbec wine, a varietal Wine Spectator Magazine says is "On a Roll". A professional, on-site vineyard and property management team is available to manage your vineyard and villa. And if you chose to allow Calitina Inversiones S.A. to operate your villa as a Calitina Villa Hotel™, you have the potential to receive substantial pre-tax earnings and cash-on-cash returns.
The Calitina Vineyard Country Club is not a time-share property. You receive deeded ownership to your land and vineyard, and will own any improvements. In Argentina, a foreign buyer's property rights are exactly the same as those of Argentines. Your purchase can be handled by an English-speaking escribano (attorney and title agent) who will clearly explain all the details.
This is a unique opportunity to live among the vines and receive potential income and capital appreciation from a fast growing wine tourism destination that Business Week Magazine calls "The Next Napa". If you share the founders' spirit of adventure and passion for fine wine -- and are looking for an affordable vineyard lifestyle property with substantial upside potential, then this opportunity is for you.
The price for this gold-medal winning Malbec vineyard estate parcel, including the building site provisioned for utilities, is US$68,000 per hectare (US$27,530 per acre). The entire 2.8 hectare estate is available for US$190,000. The purchase price is paid in U.S. dollars. No financing is being offered. An architect and construction company is available to design and build your villa for approximately US$600 per covered square meter (US$56 per square foot).
One vineyard estate has been sold. Only one remaining! Now is your chance to make an offer before you miss this unique opportunity.
