Barrel Stop Winery Sold, Still Heads For Liquidation

Barrel Stop Winery’s federal bankruptcy trustee has sold the winery’s assets and liabilities, but the transaction stops far short of ending the affair.

The purchase follows an earlier, unsuccessful attempt by a Rothschild impersonator, sex offender and friend of the Schutzes to buy the assets on behalf of a suspended corporation that could not legally do business in California (Elder Abuse, Sex Offender Amp Up The Bizarre in Barrel Stop Bankruptcy)

The sale was a last-ditch effort following trustee’s earlier decision to shut down the money-losing winery and abandon the property (Frustrated Trustee Punts, Winery Gets 90 Days To Sell Or Be Foreclosed).
