Chapter 812: It's so cheap
(Congratulations to friends who know each other and don't love each other and become the helmsman)
Naturally, when you return to the hotel, you want to celebrate and enjoy the home-grown wine. This was set aside by Raymond in advance, otherwise it would have been sold out at the tasting. He didn't know that Liu Yunxuan still had a lot on his plane waiting to return to Huaxia to give gifts.
"Ray, it's time to reveal to us the winery you chose." Liu Yunxuan asked with a smile when he was resting after dinner. Now that our wine has won the Gold Award, the focus of our future work will be on expanding production capacity.
"Let me first introduce you to the main grape regions in France." Raymond said with a smile, he knew that Liu Yunxuan didn't know much about this.
"The top 10 most famous wine regions in France are Champagne, Alsace, Loire Valley, Burgundy, Jura-Savoie, Rhône, Bordeaux, Southwest, Languedoc-Roussillon, Provence."
"Hey, didn't you say that there is also a Porto wine, that should be quite famous, why is there no production area for it?" Liu Yunxuan asked with some confusion.
Hearing Liu Yunxuan's question, Michelle on the side said with a black line in her head, "Yunxuan, it seems that Porto wine is produced in Portugal. ”
If there is a Porto region here, something will happen, and the two countries will fight. It seems that if you are okay in the future, you have to popularize some knowledge for your good husband.
"Okay, Ray, go on." Liu Yunxuan said a little embarrassed, and glared at the fat man fiercely after speaking, this product is so happy.
"The winery I chose is in the Pyrenees region of southern France, with 46 hectares of vineyards and about 26 hectares of vineyards. Their production equipment is newly maintained, and we can use it after we take over and make appropriate improvements. Raymond continued.
Hearing Raymond's acceptance, Liu Yunxuan was a little confused, but there was a mistake just now, and now he was afraid that he would be ridiculed by the fat man because of his lack of knowledge.
"Andy, if there's anything you want to ask, just ask. Otherwise, I would look uncomfortable with you like this. Raymond said with a smile.
"That ray, this southern Pyrenees is not among the ten appellations you just mentioned." Liu Yunxuan hesitated for a moment, but still threw out his question.
"Sorry, I didn't go into much detail just now." Raymond nodded and said, "I just talked about the ten famous appellations in France, and in these ten appellations, there are very good wines that represent the appellation. In the whole of France, there are eleven appellations. ”
In this way, Liu Yunxuan understands that although this is also a legal production area, there has been no famous wine, so the ten brothers are famous production areas.
"What's the price of this winery?" Liu Yunxuan asked with a smile. Although this area is a little worse than what I wanted, it is also larger than the current winery area. If you give this a little transformation, maybe you can transform a few more hectares.
"The price of this winery is okay, the asking price is 2.5 million euros." Raymond said with a smile.
"You're not wrong? Such a large area for so much money? Liu Yunxuan asked in disbelief. The price of this winery is as cheap as it is in the Napa Valley, and it is also in the French appellation.
"Andy, the price of vineyards in France is also very different." "For example, in the Bordeaux region, the price of a slightly better quality vineyard is 2.6 million euros per hectare, and in Burgundy, the price of a very good quality vineyard is even 10 million euros per hectare. ”
"But in the southern Pyrenees, most of the New World winemaking techniques are used. Their prices are correspondingly much cheaper, like this winery. ”
"If you say. What if we could convert this vineyard into an old-world winemaking process? Liu Yunxuan asked after thinking for a while.
"Yes, yes, but there will be no revenue output in the next few years. Because the old world winemaking process requires a relatively long storage time, when the red wine here is brewed and put on the market, it will be a few years at the earliest. If we improve the quality again, I am afraid it will take about ten or twenty years. Raymond thought for a moment and said.
He knew what Liu Yunxuan was thinking. If this area were to be transformed into an old-world wine-making region, the price of land would increase tenfold or even hundredfold. But no one can say anything about this thing, the main reason is that there are too many factors needed to make wine in the old world, otherwise where would the vineyards here be so cheap.
"Buy this, it's going to take longer. Anyway, we're still young, so we'll make a good makeover when the time comes. Liu Yunxuan thought about it for a while and said.
Fangfang's vineyard can still support it, and when the time comes, I can touch a larger vineyard and have a buffer period of one or two years, and I can also increase the entire production capacity.
"Okay, then we can contact the seller tomorrow." Raymond said happily.
In fact, he pays more attention to the brewing method of the old world craft, but he just thinks that since Liu Yunxuan has invested, he will try his best to recover some of the costs, otherwise it will be a lot of cost to invest in the past ten or twenty years.
"Well, this vineyard is so cheap, it would be nice to buy a bigger one." Liu Yunxuan said with some regret.
The vineyard that Raymond just mentioned, not counting the factory and other places, only the price of the vineyard growing area, is less than 100,000 euros a hectare. Having your own space for water, watering the vines when it's time to replant them, and adding Raymond's technology, it's a great investment.
"In fact, next to this winery, there is another winery for sale, with an area of 109 hectares, which is a grape and grain region. The area of the vineyard is 27 hectares, and the area of corn cultivation is 75 hectares. The main thing is that the Madilang red wines, the white Pachar wines and the white wines of the Béarne are protected under the appellation of origin and can be named AOC. Raymond whispered.
He felt as if he had made a small mistake. He received the news of the two wineries together, after all, they were next to each other, and they were also represented by the same real estate brokerage company.
It's just that he always thinks that the wineries that Liu Yunxuan bought should be the kind of high-quality production areas. Just like the supercars he bought, they were all limited editions, and ordinary ones were not available. He was afraid that Liu Yunxuan would not look down on the winery here, so he reported the small one.
Anyway, Liu Yunxuan is rich now, and this winery is not particularly expensive, even if it is worse than he expected, he can agree. But he only remembered now what he had overlooked. What he ignored was Liu Yunxuan's dedication to the land.
"Ray, you should have told this winery in the first place." The fat man said, putting his arm around Raymond's shoulder. Raymond nodded cooperatively.
"Yes, what about the price of this winery?" Liu Yunxuan asked with satisfaction. He didn't expect that he would really ask one of his casual words, which can be transformed into a vineyard of nearly 100 hectares. Growing corn? He ignored this directly, and the corn could only be sold for a few bucks.
"They sold it for 5.3 million euros, of which there is almost 1.5 million euros in storage." Raymond said weakly.
Hearing Raymond's words, Liu Yunxuan secretly rejoiced. I have to say a little more, otherwise I would have missed out on such a cheap big winery.
He didn't have the idea of taking a look at the small winery just now, so he planned to go back to Huaxia directly tomorrow. The winery was left to Raymond to take care of it himself. In that case, I guess I won't know when this big winery sells it.
The return on investment of this winery is even higher. The existing vineyards can be made directly to the New World process. And the cornfield over there can also be directly transformed. In this way, after two years, your output will increase wildly, and the money will be returned a lot.
"Raymond doesn't have too many dreams at night, you can contact them now, and we'll fly over tomorrow." Liu Yunxuan said urgically.
He also saw that the price here is probably like this. But for myself, it's not a problem, and others can't make good wine. It doesn't mean that you can't. When the time comes, I can become the representative winery here.
"Xuanzi, it's done. At present, the last short board in our industry has been completed. Raymond said with a smile on the phone.
Liu Yunxuan nodded, "The one here is responsible for brewing the New World process, and the winery in Fangfang will last brew some New World technology this year, and next year it will all switch to the Old World process brewing method." ”
"If we are lucky, we will boil him for more than ten or twenty years, and we will also get a wine king to come out. They can have 82 years of Lafite, we can have 13 years of Angela. ”
"Greatly. I'm not born in '13 oh, I'm a cute puppy born in '06. Fangfang, who was playing with Doudou and Xiao Afu on the side, hurriedly corrected it after hearing it. said that the little guy was thinking in his heart, he was so stupid that he even got his birth year wrong.
For the imagination of his own wine industry in the future, Liu Yunxuan's feelings are full and passionate. This was interrupted by Fang Fang. If there were twelve points of that momentum just now, there would be four or five points left at most.
Now he regrets it a little, knowing that the original wine would not be named after Fangfang. But it can't be helped, this name is the result of everyone's discussion, and Fang Fang is the owner of this winery.
"Andy, okay, we can look at these two wineries together tomorrow, but when discussing the price, I suggest that you don't cut too hard, generally their side is between 10%-15%, and some will be smaller." At this time, Raymond walked over and reminded him.
"Let's just talk about it symbolically in the past, and I think the current price is so cheap." Liu Yunxuan waved his hand and said indifferently.
He is not short of money now, and the price of the winery here is so cheap, if he doesn't bargain and be afraid of people's jokes, saying that he is stupid and has a lot of money, he can directly set it now.
The land I bought, as long as it is not a place with poor mountains and bad waters, I have the confidence to transform it into an area suitable for planting. (To be continued......)
