Background


The picturesque Longview estate is located in historic Macclesfield in the beautiful Adelaide Hills wine region, just 40 minutes drive east of Adelaide. The vineyard is owned and operated by renowned businessman, Duncan McGillivray, who was the pioneer of “Two Dogs” alcoholic lemonade.

Duncan is incredibly passionate about the Longview brand and the Adelaide Hills wine region, and through his positions on numerous boards including the Hutt St Appeal, the Premiers Wine Council and the Premiers Food Council, SA Great and the Port Power Football Club Foundation, he proudly promotes Longview wines and the region as a whole.The tasting room at Longview

The Vineyard

To maintain the natural beauty of the existing landscape, Longview Vineyard implements ecologically sustainable techniques. The first plantings of 100 acres were established in 1995. The Longview property now comprises 220 acres of vineyard and 500 acres of cattle property. The name Longview aptly describes this vineyard with its panoramic views of the Coorong and Lake Alexandrina, and the spectacular scenic vistas over the property itself and the surrounding countryside.

The Wines

The predominantly north-east facing slopes and valleys, combined with the cool climate of the Adelaide Hills and the very best winemaking practices, have produced outstanding vintages for Longview. All wines are made from premium estate-sourced fruit. Varieties released so far include Riesling, Sauvignon Blanc, Semillon/Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Viognier, Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon, Nebbiolo and Zinfandel.

In a relatively short period of time Longview has achieved an amazing number and caliber of awards/reviews.
