Investment opportunity: Vineyard + Real Estate in Okanagan Part 2



TM: When people want to invest in wine, what kind of price range, should they invest in a whole vineyard? Or just a investment fund? I understand you are having your project, can you explain it to us a little bit so our investors can have a better idea.

Sure. One of the challenge of investing directly of a sole ownership of a vineyard or winery is that they have to hire the expiries to operate that business. One of things we are doing in our venture is we are offering an investment, so people can come in and participate financially and equity of the business. And we are fully integrated winery operation where we have vineyard we own for more than 20 years, the highest awarded vineyard in the country. We are in the process of building a state-of-the-art facility for not only our own brands but also provide custom production for other wineries. And we are also going to be in the business of making and selling wines in the market place, so with all of those things happening and being fully integrated, it is an opportunity for people to invest with people who have experience, and we are going to continue to grow the business and we are in fact looking for investments in other wineries to fit the profile we need fill a complete product portfolio. There is a number of investment opportunity, but certainly, the one like that gives people that are not familiar with the industry to invest at a low risk and reasonable high return.

TM: What is the minimal for people to invest?

People can invest in a large quantity or as small as $10,000 to have an opportunity to participate.

TM: How come it can be as little as $10,000, that little?

Well, what we are trying to do is attract the number of people, it really helps us grow the brand, and we don’t want to be restricted. There is number of people that are investing obviously more than $10,000. In our investment opportunity, there is a program call VCC, which if you are BC residence, you get a 30% tax credit.

TM: How much wine do you produce?

Well, at this point, our production of wine is really small. The vineyard we have is 68 acres, we have 2 brands. One is launched last year called TIME, and the other is McWatter Collection. Between the two, past year we made 5000 cases. We are looking at produce a little bit more than that. Our short-term plan is to produce 30,000 cases, and increase to 50,000cases within the foreseeable future.

TinaM: 当一个人想要投资的时候,到底是一个人经营酒庄好还是找人和你一起合作好?

如 果你因为非常喜欢喝葡萄酒而决定去投资酒庄或者葡萄园,而这只是个人爱好,那就无所谓了。但如果你想认真的把它当作生意来做,就像做任何事情一样,你都需 要一个专业人士来提供意见。就像如果今天你来温哥华买房子,你不会因为之前在香港台湾或者大陆做过地产,就觉得这里和国内一样,是不是?那么酿酒行业也是 一样的,甚至需要更多的专业知识,而我们根本不是在这个行业。那么Harry 提供给我们一项低风险,而相对高回报的酒庄投资计划,是在他原本已经获奖无数的酒庄的基础上加大发展,扩张。这项计划除了可以投资拥有酒庄的股权之外,Harry还将建造一个国家最先进的酿酒设施,除了酿酒给自己的品牌之外,还将帮助其他品牌酿酒。除此之外,该项计划包含收购其他小酒庄。

TinaM: 最低投资是多少呢?

1万元就可以了。

TinaM: 为什么只需要1万这么少呢?

Harry想要多一些人参与到这个计划中来,以帮助品牌成长。如果你是卑诗省的居民,并且参与到这个计划中来,你可以得到30%的税务优惠。

TinaM: 现在酒庄的生产量是多少呢?

现在的庄园有60英亩,年生产量为5000箱。短期的生產目標是三萬箱紅酒,並在不久將來增至五萬箱。
