About the wine
Sam has created a blockbuster from adversity
- Sam is an absolute superstar! He currently has over 14,000 followers, a massive 96,000 ratings and literally hundreds of medals to his name.
- The story behind Sam's Fire Engine red is one to write home about. On the 3rd of March 2016, Sam heard much of his friends vineyard was destroyed. Luckily Sam and Angel-funding came to the rescue.
- From adversity Sam has created a stunning Victorian blockbuster and helped his friends on the road to rebuilding their vineyard. Expect an impossibly deep red magenta with delectable aromas of blackcurrant and a yummy savoury spiciness. It's a mouthful of flavour. Love it!

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Sam Plunkett
- Winemaking legend Sam sources grapes from the family vineyard in the Strathbogie ranges of Central Victoria. Winemakers don't come much more in love with their job than him - he'd "happily spend everyday around tanks, barrels, stainless steel toys and wine".
He’s had a meteoric rise from self-taught winemaker to a multi award-winner and even has his own cellar door now! His winery was recently recognised as one of the Top 10 Dark Horse wineries in James Halliday's 2021 Awards.
The backing of thousands of Naked Angels has helped pave the way for Sam to continue making the great wine he loves, exclusively for you!
