VIÑA SAN PEDRO & VIÑA SANTA EVARISTA


Mr. Federico Weston is a respectable business man in the area, he owns 80 hectares next to Mr. Barriento from Prados el Oeste. His property is named San Pedro and the distribution is as follows: 37 hectares of Cabernet, 19 hectares of Merlot, the rest is to produce next year. The price for the vineyard is USD 1,250.000.00. He sells bulk to the main wine producers of the area who bottled the wine and sell it withe different labels.

He also owns a property in Talca, he posses the rights an government permission to built a processing plant with a total capacity of 2,000.000.00 liters. The place is located at following coordinates:

WGS-84 Geographical Coordinates
S 035 45 186
W 071 59 471
Elevation 95m

The area is 1.2 hectares and there is power transformer, wine tasting building and a cold storage building. The property with the facilities cost USD 300,000.00 and the building of the processing plant cost USD 700,000.00. He owns the plans and rights for the project with all technical details to be available to whoever wishes to see them. I have seen the technical details, also the price given by the Chilean Engineering Company who is due to built the plant. The facilities could be built within a 6 months time frame, before the next harvest in year 2001. As you could see having the land, plant , cost less than 50 % of what Mr. Barrientos is asking for his place.

Mr. Weston also owns in the nearby another 40 hectares of vineyards 45 % ready to produce next year and the rest for the year 2002, the area is planted with Cabernet, Merlot and Chardonay. He knows some adjacent neighbor land owners who could sell if the price is good.
