Longleat is a picturesque Victorian vineyard situated on the west bank of the Goulburn River at Murchison. The 40 acre property grows Shiraz, Cabernet sauvignon and Petit Verdot grapes for premium red wines and Semillon, Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc grapes for delicate white wine. there are 20 acres of the property currently under vine
Our oldest vines, planted in 1975, are shiraz from which we produce our premium red. The cabernet and semillon vines date from the early 80's.
When the Vazzoler family established Murchison wines at Longleat in 2003 it was destiny, having produced beautiful wines in Northern Italy for generations. The Italians on the Piave River and the Australians on the Goulburn at Murchison.
Guido has many years experience making fine wines while Sandra makes cheese using Goulburn Valley cows milk. Since purchasing the vineyard they have established a casual café specialising in cheese platters. Visitors can taste the wines with the winemaker and the cheese with the cheesemaker.
A truly unique experience.
