Pentridge Cellars is situated in the D Division building of the former Pentridge Prison in Melbourne. This historical site was established more than 160 years ago and served as a key prison complex in Victoria until its closure in 1997. Pentridge Cellars’ joint directors Paul Tardivel and Michael Woodworth have spearheaded this rejuvenation project, driven by their enthusiasm for fine wine and heritage preservation.
Each former jail cell is now a wine storage facility being some 200 cells/cellars. All are available to purchase outright meaning you have legal title to the actual jail cell. They are selling the cells at present. Possibly the only 'purpose-built' wine storage-facility available to buy and own legally.
24-hour CCTV, individual swipe cards, all-hours access, concierge service for cataloguing and same-day delivery, cutting-edge climate-control technology.
