Balcones Land Co. has successfully concluded the sale of 218 acres within its Wine Trail Ranch property situated on Highway 290 between Fredericksburg and Johnson City, TX. CB Wine Tourism from Querétaro, Mexico, emerged as the buyer, acquiring the land for the development of Puerta del Lobo USA. This forthcoming luxury private estate project, surrounded by vineyards, aims to offer an upscale living experience, featuring top-tier amenities such as a boutique hotel and refined dining establishments.
Specializing in the thoughtful enhancement of rural ranch land, Balcones Land Co. is a Texas Land Development team dedicated to acquiring and beautifying properties, with the mission of making the ranch way of life accessible to a broader audience.
“Every property harbors a unique narrative, and as we conceive projects, we meticulously contemplate each aspect of the land – its topography, trees, wildlife, and historical significance – contributing to its distinctive legacy,” expressed Chris Horne, Managing Partner of Balcones Land Co. “We take pride in our role within the legacy of this remarkable region and eagerly anticipate witnessing the realization of Puerta del Lobo on this stunning parcel in the Texas Hill Country.”
Boasting superb groundwater, elevated topography, and terraced landscapes, the property proves to be an optimal site for both a vineyard and an enchanting estate community in the Texas Hill Country. Positioned with excellent visibility along Highway 290, this gem in Blanco County is conveniently located just an hour’s drive from both Austin and San Antonio.
“The Texas wine country is often likened to the Napa Valley of the 1960s, and despite its current prosperity, there remains vast potential for further growth,” stated Jose Luis Correa, CEO of CB Wine Tourism. Emphasizing the diminishing opportunities for prime properties along the heart of the wine trail in the Texas Hill Country, Correa highlighted the allure of the Blanco County gem, situated with excellent visibility along Highway 290 and just an hour’s drive from both Austin and San Antonio.
CB Wine Tourism’s Puerta del Lobo concept, successfully operating since 2014 in Querétaro, Mexico, aims to capitalize on the burgeoning Texas Wine Trail. Proposing the development of 100, 1.5-acre lots featuring breathtaking views and vineyards, the project is set to commence construction in 2024 or early 2025. Puerta del Lobo will not only offer high-end luxury housing but also a host of top-tier amenities, including an oenological park, music festivals, boutique hotel, upscale restaurants, spa, fitness center, fresh food market, parks, trails, co-working space, a care clinic, and more.
While CB Wine Tourism is actively shaping Puerta del Lobo, Balcones Land Co. notes that 40 acres of the Wine Trail Ranch property are still available for purchase. Boasting 1,440 feet of frontage along Highway 290 and unencumbered by zoning restrictions, this remaining tract holds significant potential for commercial development. As part of their broader efforts in the Texas Hill Country, Balcones Land Co. recently unveiled the 464 Ranch project in historic Johnson City, featuring 72 five-to-eleven-acre lots and highlighting the natural beauty, abundant wildlife, and rolling topography of the region.
