2016 Bernoota displays dark fruit characters of blackberry and plums, with a hint of choc mint and smoky oak aromas with the trademark Langhorne Creek fruit sweetness and soft tannins.

Clean, vibrant lifted blackcurrant and black cherry aromas with perfumed violet hints.

Palate is generous and the pristine red and black berry fruits flow over the palate with fine tannins and elegant oak supporting a sensationally balanced and long-living Cabernet.

A first for Lake's Folly, this year's Red is a blend of Shiraz 47%, Merlot 34%, and Petit Verdot 19%. After harvesting our Shiraz, Merlot and Petit Verdot (and Chardonnay) grapes in 2022, we experienced very late harvest rainfall which impacted the Cabernet grapes, leading us to the decision to not harvest the Cabernet (the first time on record this has happened at Lake's Folly). The finished result: a unique, unprecedented blend - a cracking wine (albeit without our usual Cabernet component), though in very limited quantities this release!

Characteristic floral bouquet of rosehip and spice.

Elegant, light bodied.

A classic, versatile wine.

Delicious with starters, first courses and light second courses.
