Set in the beating-heart of Murrumbateman in the picturesque cool-climate Canberra wine growing district, the Kyeema Vineyard has underpinned one of Canberra’s most exciting and awarded wine brands for almost twenty years. A fully-equipped 100 tonne winery and solid family home make this a perfect acquisition to supplement other industry holdings or a springboard for an aspiring winemaker.
The vineyard spans some 10 acres and includes plantings of shiraz, chardonnay, merlot, tempranillo and viognier Established in the early 1980s, the vineyard is revered, meticulously maintained and consistently produces exceptional fruit. The varietals perfectly complement a warmer climate portfolio or could lay the foundations of a new venture. There is also room for additional vineyard plantings if desired.
The fully-equipped winery can process in excess of 100 tonnes of fruit with approximately 50,000 litres of stainless storage and offers a vast amount space for oak. The winery is cleverly designed, with temperature controlled barrel room and bottle store, and has plenty of room for expansion should additional capacity be required.
The house is very neat and tidy, is well-positioned on the most elevated part of the property taking advantage of wide district-views and offers three good sized bedrooms plus a study. The main bedroom has a walk-in robe and ensuite and the two living areas are generous in size. The property is heated and cooled by wood burning fireplace and reverse-cycle air conditioning. Adjacent to the house is a recreation room which could be a perfect home office, teenagers retreat or even a cellar door (STCA). If the home is superfluous to the owners needs it could easily be let or used as farm-stay style accommodation.
Outside, the property has exceptional water infrastructure from two earth dams, a reliable licensed bore which amply supplies the vineyard, and four large tanks which store rainwater collected from the winery roof.
