Short description

Construction of a wine cellar building with appropriate production (including wine press house, etc.) and storage areas (including bottle store, barrique store, etc.), sales room and office as well as acquisition of wine cellar equipment (tanks, refrigeration, wooden fermentation casks, wooden barrel, etc.)

Point of departure

Due to lacking production and storage capacities (too small production and storage facilities which cannot be extended) and partly lacking technical equipment the quantities demanded by the market cannot be supplied in spite of possible extensions of the additional purchase of grapes (areas are mostly only secured by oral contracts).

Targets and target groups

Improvement of production procedures, the working and the hygienic conditions as well as the creation of additional production, storage, and sales capacities (among others sales and tasting room) in connection with the planned turnover expansions.

Project implementation and measures

No severe problems.

Results and effects

Project successfully implemented.
