First planted in 1975, Longleat turned 50 in 2025.
The Longleat vineyard was purchased by husband and wife team Guido and Sandra Vazzoler in 2003. In keeping with Guido's heritage, Italian varietals are grown along with traditional French varieties.
The vineyard is nestled on the west bank of the Goulburn River in Murchison and enjoys the perfect terroir for grape growing. With a majestic backdrop of river red gums, the newly redeveloped cellar door complex is the ideal place to explore the wines made onsite or enjoy a meal in the restaurant. The weekend blackboard menu showcases regional produce with a heavy Italian influence, house made pasta is a staple. There is an open fire and the chimney is constructed with a collection of local bricks that is both an art piece and history book. Magnificent feature doors and benchtops handmade from timber reclaimed from the original buildings onsite connect the past and present.
Take the time to have a coffee or a glass of wine under the wistful gaze of La Zingara, a mosaic of over 2000 handmade ceramic tiles created by local artist, Angie Russi. This spectacular 4.5 metre high mosaic depicts La Zingara, a gypsy and the migration of the Italian grape varieties to the Australian river country.
Wander out onto the deck and take in the stunning views over the vineyard.
