   This small boutique vineyard is always a pleasure to visit, to sample the wines and cheeses that are made with much love and care.

   The relaxed setting is restful to both body and mind.

   Fantastic to see the fruits of labour of this hard working family business. Some of the best wines I have had the pleasure of tasting and some of the finest cheeses all at one location. A truly memorable and enjoyable time everytime I visit. Well done the Vazzolers.

   I discovered Longleat about 1.5 years ago, however when I went to visit it was closed due to poor Sandra injuring her leg and going to hospital - so I drove back to Melbourne feeling a sense of unfulfillment Because of its amazing cozy atmosphere I promised myslef I would return upon one proviso -it had to be with that perfect date! Sounds easy enough, but it wasn’t. Finally a year and a half later after endless dates that did not deserve the beauty of Longleat, I found one that did. Thanks to Longleats service, wine and cheese, I scored huge brownie points with my date. Thanks Longleat, lets hope you set the scene for a wonderful future

   Beautiful little winery with great ambience. Guido’s delicious wines and Sandra’s amazing cheese are only surpassed by their warm and friendly hospitality. A Vazzoler cheese platter and wine, followed by the best coffee and cake makes for a great lunch - we are lucky to be able to indulge regularly. Beautiful wine, food and also great views of the river gums.

    We absolutely love dropping into Longleat winery to sample Guido’s fantastic wine list which is complimented beautifully by Sandra’s amazing cheese’s. What really makes the experience special is the genuinely warm and happy people Guido and Sandra are that makes us look forward to our next visit.

    This little haven is special for so many reasons - but mostly as it is local to some of my lovely friends so a visit to their home for the weekend always involves a trip to Longleat for some of Sandra’s cheese, some wine and coffee and whatever gluten free treat Sandra has on display. This couple have become friends simply by serving my friends and I. It is my favourite getaway and I’ll be there soon to celebrate my birthday. Thanks for a ’something beautiful’ that can be enjoyed often.

    The Travelling Wineberries had a memorable breafast in the rustic courtyard overlooking the vineyard and gum tree lined Goulburn River beyond with Guids, Sandra (on crutches) & the family. Fabulous simple food in a wonderful setting, fantastic warm hosts, great wines & exclusive estate made cheeses . Murchison and Longleat are truly worth a visit for all these reasons and more. Why visit a cold impersonal large winery when you can visit Longleat. We will all be back.

    Great place to visit and great people to do business with.Guido has an abundant knowledge about the industry and his manner of expressing his love of the wine industry is a real treat. “Have a treat @ longleat” don’t miss it.

    A visit to Longleat winery is a must .
    The murchison wine and Sandra’s vazzoler cheese platter for lunch is fabulous
    and stock up on Guido’s latest vintage before you leave to enjoy at home

    Guido and Sandra make a visit to their winery such a pleasure as they are so friendly and hospitable. A great asset to a small country town. If you are looking for a place that makes you feel very special then this is the place for you. Sure there are other wineries to visit but if you are after a real personal touch you cant beat Longleat.

    An easy 2hr drive from Melbourne, in the Goulburn Valley wine region, Longleat is the best choice for miles around for wine tasting, good coffee, or a quiet lunch . The views and ambience are so relaxing, the food is interesting and delicious, the wine and cheese excellent, and the hosts, Guido and Sandra are helpfull and friendly. It is such a cosy place - quite unlike the noisy, barn-like cafes, restaurants, and tasting rooms at the bigger vineyards. My favourite!

    Longleat have the best wines around the Murcison - Nagambie region. We have been going to Longleat at Murchison for at leat five years and have introduced many of our friends to Longleat Wines who are now fans.
    A visit to Longleat is truly memorable especially on a nice sunny day sitting under the vines or on the decking sipping lovely wine and nibbling on beautiful cheeses. You feel very welcome in this relaxed atmosphere. Guido and Sandra have turned this small winery into a foodies haven…

    WOW. What a wonderful place to visit. Sit and relax. Look at the vines, take in the river, smell the bush air. Taste the beautiful Vazzoler Cheese and magnificent Longleat wines. Sandra and Guido take the time, with pleasure, to make your visit one to relish and remember.

    Best coffee in GV, and Sandra’s Triple Cream Brie and Guido’s Semillion are my favourite cheese and wine. If I get to chose my last meal, that would be it!

    A great asset to a small country town. My friends and I regularly meet for lunch in this glorious setting, being welcomed like members of Sandra and Guido’s family. I also feel priviledged to be able to take any visitor there, knowing the wine and cheese will be world class standard.

    What a wonderful experience, by far the best winery we have visited in Victoria. Magnificent spot overlooking the vineyards, very relaxing sipping on a glass of Guido’s expertly engineered wine and Sandra’s delicious cheeses ….. what a way to spend an afternoon. Highly recommended.

    It does not get any better than this……sitting on the balcony of the cafe you are surrounded by the vines and in the distance the gum trees line the river.
    Its so serene except for the australian birds carrying on. Kicking back with a glass of Guido’s wine and a tasting plate of either Sandra’s cheese’s or something she has cooked that day, you cant go wrong…..
    Guido and Sandra, congratulations on doing such a great job!

    Wow. How wonderful to be able to experience wine with the winemaker and cheese with the cheesemaker.
    We enjoyed a magnificent and generous antipasto platter amongst the vines. Great to see a family run business
    doing it so right. MMM I am already looking forward to my next visit.

    I LOVE Longleat. Sandra and Guido are great hosts. The wines are wonderful, the cheese…especially that Feta….divine!! I love the setting of the winery too. Cosy inside when it’s cold and beautiful outside on the newly enlarged decking when it’s warm. One of my favourite places to visit. Well done…a great venue. One other thing….my daughter LOVES the hot chocolate with the marshmallows!!!!!!!

    Absolutely love Longleat winery. Sandra and Guido always make you feel welcome and the cheese and wine are the best we have ever tasted. My children just love the hot chocolates and the anti-pasto platters are to die for. A perfect way to relax on the balcony, taking in the magnificant views of the River Gums and splendid vineyard.

    A visit to Murchison Wines at Longleat is an event. Guido and Sandra are cheerful and considerate hosts. Home made wines by the Winemaker and cheese by the Cheesemaker in a beautifully relaxed setting with friendly and personal service, guaranteed to delight !. This is a ‘must visit’ for those on the winery trail, or for those seeking the peace and quiet of a truly rural setting for a cup of great coffee with pleasant company.

    What is so different about this winery is that every time we go we are greeted with the most friendly smiles from the hosts, Sandra and Guido. Guido, the winemaker produces great shiraz and my husband’s favourite, beautiful riesling that compliments so many different food types.
    Sandra’s cheese is amazing, the bouble cream brie is sensational and the cheddar is my favourite.
    Take time to hunt out this quaint winery on the banks of the goulburn.
