About the wine
.
- This wine is blended from all 5 vineyard sites Mike sources fruit from and is bottled as more of a regional expression of the season rather than a particular sub region or vineyard site.
- Mike is so lucky to work with some outstanding farmers from all over the region stretching from the southern Awatere Valley to southern Waihopai Valley.
- Blending these parcels allows Mike to craft a wine that highlights the fruit purity and intensity of the season while balancing this intensity with sweer / sour citrus and stonefruit characters these vineyard sites provide.

Serving advice
Serve lightly chilled at 14-16°C.
Food match
Marlborough salmon. The salmon's texture, richness and full flavour is cut beautifully by the freshness of acidity.
Contains sulphites
Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Mike Paterson
Vintages in California, Burgundy and Australia, and 10 years making wine for one of the leading estates in Marlborough, have seen Mike working with some of the world's best winemakers and vineyards. And it's had a profound influence on his winegrowing philosophy.
Wanting the freedom to make wine in his own name, Mike found the opportunity to get Naked too hard to ignore. No longer at the mercy of big brands and wholesalers, he could finally create wines his own way that celebrated the influence of human touch and the relationship between friends, growers, fruit and season. And, unique to Naked Wines, to find out what the people who drank it thought of it.
Mike's aim has always been to showcase his beloved region. "Our ambition with Lay of the Land wines is to represent the pureness of Marlborough's striking landscape, but with balance and texture and in turn immeasurable drinkability." The fact that the wines have attracted international awards is just a bonus!
