We are delighted to share that Lake’s Folly has been recognised in the Halliday W**e Companion Top 100 W**eries 2026.
From the Halliday team:
The Top 100 W**eries “…is a celebration of the best Australian producers of right now. It acknowledges the movers and shakers as much as the stalwarts, the w**eries who consistently produce exceptional w**es and, in some cases, memorable cellar door experiences. The names on this list never rest on their laurels – they constantly strive for better, in their w**ery, their vineyards, with their growers, and their regions. These are the producers shaping Australia’s modern w**e landscape and ensuring its future.”
Halliday’s Katrina Butler, wrote:
“It’s an honour to acknowledge the stalwarts who remain consistent and unwavering. Lake’s Folly is 100 Points on both counts.”

Factors to determine the final list include:
• W**es that have been reviewed in the past 12 months, and awarded high scores.
• Quality, and consistency across the range.
• Industry impact and mentorship amongst peers.
• Sustainable practices in the vineyard and w**ery.
With a now-estimated 2700+ producers in 65 recognised w**e regions across Australia, we are proud to receive this acknowledgement - not only for our current releases, but also the recognition of consistency across our range, over time; something our team always strives to achieve, regardless of what each season delivers in the vineyard.
Our small, single-site 13-hectare vineyard in Pokolbin, is the source from which our w**es have been made for over 60 years now, and is responsible for the Lake’s Folly ‘house style’ of w**e that’s been embraced by many of our long-standing members and customers, who continue to add Lake’s Folly to their cellars - and for that, we’re most grateful.
Cheers from all the team at the Folly!🍷
