When to drink: 2021–2031

About This Wine

Lake’s Folly Cabernets is a classic Hunter Valley Bordeaux-style blend made from low-yielding, estate-grown, hand-picked fruit.

The 2001 vintage shows a refined, balanced profile shaped by open fermentation for softer tannins, followed by maturation in oak. The wine builds quietly rather than forcefully, offering structure, longevity and a composed, savoury expression typical of Lake’s Folly.

About the Winery

Lake’s Folly is one of the Hunter Valley’s most respected boutique estates, established in 1963 and known for its small-production, age-worthy wines. Estate-grown fruit, low yields and traditional winemaking underpin the house style, with a focus on balance, restraint and longevity rather than power.
