Sale of a wine estate


Sale of a wine estate

October 2025

For Thibaut Vérié, Notaire in Lyon and specialist in wine law, “when selling a wine estate, the property audit is not just a simple administrative formality: it is a strategic step that enhances the value of the estate and protects both the seller and the buyer.”

Indeed, selling a wine estate is not limited to negotiation or the signing of deeds. Upstream, a comprehensive real estate audit is essential to secure the transaction and give the buyer confidence.

This general rule is all the more true given that these sales have become extremely complex due to the proliferation of legislation and the convergence of public interests (urban planning, environment, etc.) and private interests (property rights, building rights, etc.).
