About the wine
A Top Shelf treat for all, capturing why Naked exists
- The master has done it again. He's created a small batch beauty that will send Pinot lovers into a spin. As a notoriously delicate varietal, turning top quality Pinot fruit into something incredible doesn't happen easily.
- Rod sourced the Pinot from a high altitude site in the Bendigo sub-region of Central Otago where the sun drenched aspect produces fruit with intense structure. This vintage is very floral and has brooding dark cherry layers. The palate shows fine tannins enveloped in succulent fruit and a dry lingering finish.
- With those at Naked HQ lapping up this Top Shelf Pinot quicker than you can say Kiwi, you'd be wise to lock some in for your own collection soon. World class regional Pinot at prices similar to those at the cellar door simply don't happen anywhere online aside from Naked. Your Angel backing has created something special and made it accessible to all; definitely worth raising a glass to that!
