Did you know?

It takes 5 to 7 years to make wine

A vine starts producing mature grapes only 3 to 5 years after you plant it.

Once you harvest your first grapes you need to age your wine for a minimum of 2 years (often more)

It takes at least 5 to 7 years of investment before a vintner gets to enjoy and sell wine.

We can divide vineyards

Blockchain allows us to easily digitize and divide any assets.
In the case of vineyards, we divide them in 6-vine parcels that produce a case of wine per year (12 bottles).
The ownership period can be established for a defined period of time.

Smart contracts make it easy

When you own 6 vines, you own more than plants. You own defined rights to the plant (defined by each vineyard).

Standard rights include length of ownership, your name on the vines, prime access to 12 bottles per year at a defined price, events…etc.

Your investment maintains local traditions

Your purchase of a 3-year or a 30-year vine ownership allows vineyards to renew their vines, invest in new vines and equipment and maintain their local activity.

Your membership will help maintain the terroir, local winemaking traditions and the ecosystem. And as you become part of a vineyard you also become part of the rich heritage of winemaking.
