About this product
Dry, Full Bodied style of Red Field BlendHunter Valley, AustraliaLake's Folly Hunter Valley Cabernet is a historical wine not only in the region, but for Australia wine as well. The 2001 has some initial berry sweetness, but the mid-palate is quite savoury with tannins slightly drying. Not a huge wine, but a structured, tight style that will integrate and improve with time. Definitely a long living wine.

Full bodied red wines have a noticeably textural mouthfeel with bold, complex flavours. Often deeply coloured.
Dry wines have no trace of sweetness at all.

Medium red-purple; the clean, gently complex, savoury bouquet is fruit-driven, the oak diminuendo; a fine and elegant light to medium-bodied palate, with a full array of red and black fruits, a touch of black olive, and fine tannins on the finish.
