• +/- 70% of the vines are currently contracted with Bogle Family Vineyards through 2024-2027 at $800-$850 per ton, of which 43% is contracted through 2027 at $850 per ton. All contracts include a $25 per ton bonus when delivered with certification by LODI RULES. 

• 112.49 +/- net planted acres (+/- 27% of net planted acreage) are currently leased to Matchbook Wine Company (neighboring winery on adjacent parcel to the north) through October 31st, 2028, with $206,981.60 in annual lease income ($1,840 per net acre). The lease includes a 5-year option to extend at $2,000 per net acre.

• Multiple-source irrigation water is currently supplied to the vineyard blocks through the Dunnigan Hills Ranch Mutual Water Company (“DHRMWC”), a privately owned and operated water company that primarily utilizes surface water from the Yolo County Flood Control and Water Conservation District (“YCFCWCD”), with supplemental water provided via seven shared operating agricultural deep wells located throughout the DHRMWC boundaries, providing a combined 6,850 +/- gallons per minute (“GPM”) per Seller, and a shared 50-acre-foot reservoir (located on the Property). The legal formation of the DHRMWC is currently pending formal execution. Shares of the district are projected to be given on an owned-per-acre basis, which would provide the new owner of the Dunnigan Hills Ranch with a potential +/- 43% share of the DHRMWC (2,655 +/- gross service area acres). Irrigation water is distributed throughout the DHRMWC via canal lift pumps, reservoir lift pumps, deep wells, booster pumps, filter stations, and main and submain pipelines. The Property vineyard blocks are irrigated via a dual-line drip system.

• Two new wells (#8 and #9) were drilled, developed, and completed in 2022, which per Seller are projected to yield an estimated combined additional 3,800 +/- GPM for the DHRMWC members.

• The Seller received issued permits for 2 additional agricultural wells (#10 and #11) that are valid through February 2025. 

• The Property features 3 +/- acres of solar panels to assist in offsetting operating costs.

• Purchase Price: $12,500,000 plus cultural cost reimbursement for the 2024 growing crop (allocation: $22,000 per net vine acre, $9,200 per potential plantable open land acre).
