LIVE VINE is a turn-key, family -operated boutique winery offering a "ground-to-bottle" experience.  In addition to on site winery operations, the tasting room has become known as one of the best pizza restaurants in the county.  Position in a tranquil country setting, it is the only winery in the area featuring a stunning lakeside view.

The property grows Viognier, Barbera, Mourvedre, and Chenin Blanc, utilizes additional Syrah, Grenache, and Zinfandel grapes grown locally, and purchases other varietal grapes from a vineyard in Lodi. The newly completed tasting room is strategically located right off highways 162 and 99 providing easy access.

The restaurant/winery sits on a generous 11.12 ac lot with Rural Residential 5ac min. zoning.  The designation is designed to balance residential life with "small farmsteads" and rural activities, offering significant flexibility for future development beyond its current use as a boutique winery.  

Residential Expansion & Small Farmstead Potential: You are permitte dto have one single family home and Accessory Swelling Unit per lot. The zoning allows for extensive outbuildings including barns, workshops, greenhouses, and sotrage buildings to support a private estate or hobby farm. There is potential for a land division into two separate 5+ acre parcels, subject to county approval and development standards.

Expanded Agricultural & Animal Uses: While currently a vineyard, it is believed the land can be used for any crop cultivation, orchards, or nurseries.  Private stables and animal grazing are permitted uses.  For parcels of this size, you can typically keep up to one "animal unit" per acre (eg horses or cattle) without a special permit. (buyer to verify).  You are permitte to conduct on-site agricultural product sales, allowing for a farmstand to complement the existing winery tasting room.

Commercial & Institutional Flexibility: The winery has a state and federal 02 winegrower license as well as a federal distilling license.  Increased wine production and the addition of a state Craft Distillers license with expanded menu offerings in the tasting room would appeal to a wider population.  With a Conditional Use Permit, the RR zone may allow for non-residential uses such as persoanl services, public/Quasi-public facilities, or expanded animal services.  The property is already a popular venue for gatherings and community nights.  Further expansion of special event facilites is a recognized use in Butte County's rural zones.
