Château Cheval Belair

Michael Baynes, co-founder and Executive Partner of Vineyards-Bordeaux observed that this sale represented another example of the trend to purchase the so-called hobby vineyard: “we are seeing increasing interest from buyers seeking the vineyard lifestyle but minimizing their exposure to operational and wine distribution risk. Chateau Bel Air is an archetype hobby vineyard and Dan Arnold, who specializes in vineyard transactions around Bergerac, did an outstanding job selling this vineyard estate in one of the most difficult markets we have seen for a while.”
