When selling or buying a vineyard or winery it’s crucial that you engage a solicitor with substantial wine industry experience. This ensures critical issues and details aren’t overlooked – which may not be apparent to clients or solicitors without deep industry knowledge.

Pre-contract advice should also be sought and a due diligence list prepared and satisfied, while contracts inevitably need to be subject to conditions.
