TASTING_NOTES_HEADING_BLACK

A 100% estate-grown chardonnay from the original plantings on the flat. It is an unashamedly bolder, riper style and an excellent example of its type. The juice from crushed fruit begins fermentation in a tank before being transferred to French barriques of mixed age for completion, followed by eight-month maturation on lees. The result is a wildly concentrated, satisfying wine with clotted cream, peach and lemon cheesecake layers encasing an intense grapefruit core. The fruit weight and oak are synchronised, and integrated acidity elevates the flavours and elongates the finish. Toni Paterson for James Halliday

Lake's Folly

Established in 1963 by Doctor Max Lake, Lake's Folly was the first new vineyard in the Hunter Valley last century. In early 2000 Lake's Folly was purchased by Peter and Lee Fogarty and family who, along with Hunter-born and bred winemaker, Rodney Kempe, have continued to maintain the integrity and direction of this significant vineyard. Our two flagship wines, a Cabernet blend and a Chardonnay, are made in limited quantities and are grown, vintaged, and made on the estate. The wine styles are restrained and elegant, showing finesse and complexity. They have clarity of structure and great length of flavour.
