Burgundy is undoubtedly one of the most emblematic and prestigious wine regions in the world. A land of tradition, ancestral know-how and landscapes listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, it attracts every year many investors and enthusiasts looking to fulfil a dream: becoming a winegrower on this exceptional land. On ma-propriete.fr, we support you in this unique endeavour with a varied and high-quality range of offers.
The acquisition of a wine property in Burgundy is not limited to buying land; it means becoming part of a history and a dynamic economic ecosystem. The region, famous for its Climats and its unique Terroir, extends over several key departments: Yonne, Côte d'Or, Saône-et-Loire and Rhône.
The structure of the Burgundy vineyard is complex and fascinating. It is divided into several major wine sub-regions that it is essential to know before any investment project:
These lands produce wines mainly from four flagship grape varieties: Pinot Noir for red wines, Chardonnay for white wines, but also Gamay and Aligoté, which are enjoying renewed interest.
When looking at a winegrowing estate for sale, it is crucial to assess the available hectares of vines. In Burgundy, surface area is sometimes still expressed in Ouvrées (an old local agrarian measure). Beyond the land itself, the value of an estate lies in its infrastructure. A functional estate must have suitable farm buildings, a modern winery for vinification, and all the necessary cellar equipment (presses, pumps, barrels).
The market offers a great diversity of properties: from the simple clos enclosed by stone walls, typical of the region, to the sumptuous historic wine château, including a wine trading house or a small family estate. The wine sector’s economy is solid, driven by constant international demand, which ensures a certain long-term stability, even if climatic hazards remain a challenge for the profession.
Starting a project to buy a vineyard in Burgundy or to sell a wine estate requires thorough analysis. The first criterion is obviously the location and classification of the plots. The hierarchy of wines in Burgundy is strict: Regional, Village Appellation, Premier Cru and, at the top of the pyramid, Grand Cru. The price per hectare varies considerably depending on this classification, ranging from several tens of thousands of euros to several millions for the most prestigious plots.
The financial aspect is therefore central. A successful vineyard investment requires carefully sizing your overall budget. This must include:
The profitability of an estate will depend on your strategy: selling in bottles (maximum added value but requires a sales network), selling to négociants (lower margins but faster cash flow), or a mixed approach.
There are many financing options. In addition to traditional bank loans, you can turn to private investors or structure the purchase through a Groupement Foncier Viticole (GFV – wine landholding company) to separate ownership of the land from operation of the estate. It is essential to assess the health of the vineyard (age of the vines, diseases) and the compliance of environmental facilities before signing.
