Please contact Paul Locatelli if you are interested in this vineyard
acreage:
LOCATELLI RANCH
Located at 16001 Empire Grade Rd., Santa Cruz Ca.
This is a great opportunity to lease 75-100 level acres in the Bonny
Doon area for your vineyard. Because of the different soils on the
property as well as the temperate climate at the
1800 ft elevation, several varietals could be grown here. The first
winery that was here dates from about 1920's started by Vincent
Locatelli and went well into the 1950's under the Eagle Rock label. In
1976 this was the location chosen by the Sunrise Winery to begin their
operation until 1983.
This is already zoned as agricultural land, although a well would have
to be drilled to supply water for the vines. Coastal Range Vineyards
has extensive knowledge of this property and its suitability for grapes
and could be contacted for further information.
With a growing demand for premium wines and a shrinking supply of
available land, leasing this acreage would be perfect for either new or
established vintners.
The Owners Albert and Harry Locatelli would be willing to work with
anyone who might be interested in leasing the acreage.
Thanks
