Longview is recognised as one of the Adelaide Hills’ leading vineyards

Longview Vineyard is just south of the historic township of Macclesfield in the Adelaide Hills, about 40 minutes south-east of the city of Adelaide. Since its early days as one of the area's largest dairy farms, Longview has now been meticulously restored and developed into one of South Australia's premium wine tourism destinations. The name Longview aptly describes this vineyard which has panoramic views over the property itself and the surrounding countryside as well as far reaching outlook to the Coorong and Lake Alexandrina.

Situated among some of the region’s most picturesque vineyard country, Longview crafts a distinguished line-up of wines from each finely tuned piece of their vineyard.

“This gem of a shiraz was grown on Longview’s Macclesfield vineyard in the Adelaide Hills. It has intense pepper-spice and fine French oak aromas. It’s very young and a touch raw but amazingly slurpable and thoroughly delicious. Sweet, ripe, spicy cherry fruit floods the mouth, smooth as silk and almost lush. The lasting impression is of balance. It should reward cellaring for 12 plus years but it’s hard not to drink it now!" -Huon Hooke re 2006 Longview Yakka Shiraz
