Offered separately, the first sale features Imagery Winery, a fully operational winery and hospitality venue located in Sonoma County, while the second, Rabbit Ridge Winery, is an established Paso Robles location. Both sales have a bid deadline of January 16, 2026.

The site includes a production facility with barrel cellars and a crush/tank pad, along with a variety of hospitality and entertainment spaces ideal for tastings, private events and outdoor gatherings. Among these are picnic and patio areas, a bocce ball court and an art gallery, creating a warm and inviting setting for guests and wine enthusiasts alike. The facility is licensed for annual production of up to 180,000 cases and includes 250,000 gallons of jacketed tank storage, offering an excellent opportunity for small-scale producers, boutique operators or hobbyists looking to establish or expand their footprint in Sonoma Valley.

Known as the birthplace of California's wine industry, Sonoma Valley stretches 17 miles between the Mayacamas and Sonoma Mountains and is home to an array of vineyard estates, artisan wineries and charming small towns. In 2024, the broader Sonoma County attracted more than 10.5 million visitors annually, with a total domestic spending at $1.5 billion. Visitors are drawn to this region because of its relaxed, wine-country lifestyle, farm-to-table dining, luxury accommodations, and outdoor recreation. Just minutes from the historic Sonoma Plaza, Jack London House and other popular destinations, this property benefits from strong tourism traffic and a proven demand for event-driven hospitality experiences.

The second property is located at 1172 San Marcos Road and Texas Road, Paso Robles, Calif., and comprises of two parcels totaling 310± AC, making a large-scale winery and vineyard. Situated just one mile from U.S. Highway 101, the parcel on San Marcos Road spans 155± AC. 93± AC is fertile vineyard land and 7± AC holds the 47,850± SF, state-of-the-art gravity flow production facility formerly licensed for the annual production of 400,000 cases.

Designed for efficiency and scale, the property is ready to resume production with a comprehensive array of facilities, including a recessed loading dock with leveler, crush pad, fermentation room, a climate-controlled barrel warehouse and bottling facility featuring 55-foot clear heights. Adding to the appeal is the recent upgrade to the water system, increasing the waterlog to 85-100 GPM on 2 wells, offering a turnkey foundation for reactivation and a swift return to wine production and distribution.

Beyond its winemaking infrastructure, the offering includes the adjacent 155± AC parcel on Texas Road, which features 124± fertile AC and significant open land. This expansive parcel provides optionality for both agricultural expansion and residential developments, giving investors the unique ability to reimagine the site as a complementary community, lifestyle or mixed-use space within the Paso Robles market.

Paso Robles' central location provides convenient access to both Northern and Southern California markets. Notably, the area has remained largely unaffected by recent wildfire activity, offering added stability and long-term investment appeal. In 2025, a report by Beacon Economics found the Paso Robles AVA generated a $2.8 billion economic impact in California with a annual visitor count of 2.5 million. The region's diverse soils, distinct microclimates and wide day-to-night temperature swings create ideal conditions for producing premium and ultra-premium wines.

"Sonoma Valley and Paso Robles each capture a unique side of California wine country," said Jamie Coté, director in the Hilco Global real estate group. "Sonoma offers a refined blend of culture, hospitality and history, while Paso Robles embodies growth, innovation and accessibility."

Christian Koulichkov, director in the Hilco Global real estate group, added, "Through our collaboration with Onyx Asset Advisors these offerings provide a clear path for vintners as well as investors or developers seeking reposition opportunities in two of the strongest segments of California's wine market."
