The Offering

Two assets, one escrow. A wine business that is already running, and the 90 acres it runs on.

Most wine-country offerings ask a buyer to build something. This one is already built, already staffed and already selling, sixteen years into its current ownership.

Agua Dulce Winery sits on Sierra Highway in northern Los Angeles County, close enough to the city for a Saturday crowd and far enough out to feel like somewhere else entirely. Eighty of its ninety acres are planted. Behind the vines is a full production facility with a bottling line, a barrel warehouse and capacity for 25,000 cases a year. In front of them is a 9,300 square foot tasting room, an events barn, a covered pavilion and parking for more than a hundred cars. A five-bedroom manor house sits among the vines.

The result is a property that can be taken in several directions. Continue the operation as it stands. Scale the production behind an existing label. Or keep the land and the improvements and put a new name on the door.

Production

The fruit is planted. The line is already running.

Eighty planted acres and everything needed to turn that fruit into a finished, labelled case: crush, tanks, barrels, bottling and storage, all on site.

Facility: 15,000± SF winery and barrel warehouse
Capacity: 25,000 cases per year
Bottling: Full bottling line on site
Cellar: Wine cellar lined with French oak barrels
Vineyard: 80± planted acres of rolling vines

For a label buying fruit and renting space, this is the missing half. For an operator, it is a business that does not need to be started.

The Business

Five doors into one destination.

The winery earns from five directions at once, and each of them is established and transfers with the sale. A buyer is not underwriting a plan. They are underwriting a trading business with seven-figure annual revenue.

The wine club alone is the part that cannot be bought: nearly four thousand people who already have a relationship with this label.

Wine club

Nearly 4,000 members, generating recurring shipment and allocation revenue and a ready audience for every release and member event.

Tasting room

9,300 square feet of tasting, gift shop and retail space, drawing steady visitor traffic to the county's largest wine destination.

Private events

Weddings and gatherings across the two-story barn, the covered pavilion and the vineyard grounds, with more than 100 parking spaces on site.

Short stays

Established Airbnb operations on the estate, monetizing wine-country lodging inside the Los Angeles market.

Location filming

An active film and television location, close enough to the studios to shoot wine country and be back the same day.

Production filming is not a novelty here. It is one of the five revenue streams, and it exists because this is the only property of its kind close enough to Los Angeles to shoot in a day.

Hospitality

Built to hold a crowd.

Three distinct venues, one property, and enough parking that an event never spills onto the highway.

The tasting room anchors the visit. The two-story barn and the covered pavilion take it from there, which is what makes weddings and private events a standing line of business rather than an occasional favour.

The Residence

A five-bedroom manor among the vines.

Colonial in style, open in plan, and built for the kind of entertaining the rest of the property already does professionally.

The kitchen has been updated with Viking stainless appliances and framed by vineyard views. The primary suite carries a fireplace, built-in office space and generous closet storage. The patio looks out over the vines, and the wine cellar below is lined with French oak.

The Land

Ninety acres. Eighty of them planted.

Almost the whole property is working ground, which is the number that matters when the vineyard is the asset.

Agua Dulce sits in northern Los Angeles County, a dramatic change of scenery less than an hour's drive from the middle of the city. A private airport adjoins the property, a natural fit for fly-in guests and owners. The result is wine-country quiet with the full Los Angeles visitor market, and the studios, within easy reach.
