According to information from
Var Matin
, George Clooney is preparing to buy the Canadel estate in Brignoles.
The American actor would have set his sights on this 170 hectare wine property close to the Vallon de Cavaillon.
The area has been buzzing with the acquisition of a property by George Clooney and his wife Amal for some time now.
It would be - almost - done, since the Hollywood star
"seems indeed on the point of settling in the department"
according to the regional daily.
Imminent transaction
The journalists of
Var Matin
went to question the probable future neighbors of the actor.
While some "are
annoyed that the information has leaked
", and "
still reluctant Tuesday to confirm it"
, others informed the daily that the transaction was imminent.
"The transaction is not yet signed
", specify some sources, adding however that "
it is almost done
".
An appointment would even be made at the notary on Wednesday May 5.

George Clooney, once owner, will almost be next door to his friend and playmate Brad Pitt. The two men, longtime friends, met in 2001 on the set of
Ocean Eleven
. Brad Pitt owns Miraval Castle, located a few miles further north of George Clooney's estate. If Angelina Jolie's ex-husband produces wine there, according to
Var Matin
, the new buyer will not be able to do the same. Indeed, only eight hectares of the 170 on the property are planted with vines, and the possibilities for increasing production seem limited.
