Lake’s Folly Cabernets is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petit Verdot, and Shiraz crafted from low-yield, estate-grown, hand-picked grapes. The fruit undergoes open fermentation, resulting in softer, subtler tannins, followed by six months in large old casks for settling. It is then aged in small French oak barriques (new and one- to two-year-old) for about a year before bottling. This wine has excellent long-term cellaring potential of up to 20 years, depending on the vintage.
The blend varies according to vintage. Some releases have been 100% Cabernet Sauvignon with others a more traditional Bordeaux blend. Please contact your merchant for more information.

98 Points James Halliday:“A classic blend of cabernet sauvignon, merlot, shiraz and petit verdot, hand-picked, berry-sorted by hand, cultured yeast, 7 days on skins, matured for 18 months in French oak (30% new). Only 13% alcohol, but gloriously juicy cassis and stone fruit tannins. The paradox is a blazing hot summer and one of the all-time great Follys. Drink to 2047.”
