Those buying French property can often do so with wines coming as part of the deal, it has been stated.

In a feature on the growth of wine-connected property, the Daily Mail reports that some sellers are including a supply of the local produce and the chance to participate in the local wine-making industry in their deals.

The paper notes that one example of this includes properties available from £185,050 on an) estate in the Languedoc region.

Spokesman for the firm behind the project Domaine & Demeure, Karl O’ Hanlon, said the potential rental yields are higher – around four to 4.5 per cent – if the owners rent their homes out in "high season", partly thanks to the strong appeal of being on an estate.

French property buyers may also be interested in the Alsace region, which is also well known for its wines.

The Alsace Chamber of Commerce will be displaying some of these at the London Wine Fair from May 12th to 14th.
