Problem
LiquidVineyards brings innovation to the traditional universe of wine production by solving three key problems:
- Consumers are paying too much for high-quality wine.
- Profitable investments based on sustainable financial products have traditionally only been available to larger investors in the wine industry.
- Wine lovers are in general, not connected to wine production.
Many small vineyards make great wines but are unknown in international markets due to a lack of capital and a lack of marketing resources. Additionally, many people would like to own their own vineyards but cannot manage the size of the investment and often lack the management know-how such as farming, winemaking, and marketing. Running a successful winery is a hard-gained experience, not a hobby.
Solution
LiquidVineyards’ Digital Rights are powered by the Sun!
Vineyards have a limited production capacity and wine grows in price steadily each year like no other financial asset. LiquidVineyards’ (LV) technology allows individuals to select from a global range of premium wineries and are connected to their wine production by owning the Digital Rights to vines. LV handles the paperwork (Digital Rights), and the winemaker will handle winemaking.
By purchasing Digital Rights to vines through LiquidVineyards, you can select among our quickly increasing inventory of vineyards from different regions and varietal options. Digital Rights are the link between investors and wine producers; no intermediaries for a cost-effective solution to global wine markets.
Our exclusive Digital Rights patent-pending tracking technology communicates through RFID straps on each vine and the digital labels on each bottle. With 5G seals and labels, your bottles' journey is mapped worldwide giving you exclusive access to wineries and can learn about the wine production process.

Each bottle is one-of-a-kind, and buyers can opt for yearly wine delivery or wait for the investment gain through annual wine appreciation. The buyer has ownership of the vine’s product for a period ranging from 3 to 30 years.
Market
According to a recent report by BusinessWire, the global wine market has witnessed steady growth over the years and is projected to grow 21% percent by 2023 and valued at $434 billion by 2027. The US Market, one of the biggest global producers, is estimated to reach $88 Billion by 2023.
Business Model
LV is a cash flow business between Wineries and their clients/owners.
- In the typical 3-tier distribution system, the price of each and every bottle of wine is multiplied by 4 once reaching your home to pay out all the players involved. With LiquidVineyards it is your own wine that you are shipping home and at a fixed price. This allows LV to mark up the wine produced by only 100% and yet still be very profitable.
- LV does not manufacture anything reducing the industrial risk to zero.
- LV requires the payment for the first year of delivery at the initial order plus 25% advance payment for each year up to 3 years 15% up to 5 years and 10% above, of the Digital Rights reservation.
- This adds up to the first year plus the additional percent of each coming year of cash flow.
- LV contracts straight with the farmers an “acquisition contract” and another with the clients a “distribution contract”, this system is simple and yet efficient, clients and farmers do not sign an agreement between them.
- The agreement with farmers is based on an enhanced price (depends on agreement, generally 10%) than their annual standard in order to give them margin. This has proven very attractive to farmers who have shown great enthusiasm for the LV business model, understanding the benefit for them too.
- The potential market is simply enormous. It is the whole planet, not everyone drinks wine but others like the financial gaining of digital rights.
