About the wine
A seriously juicy... drop!
This wine is Naked’s 2024 Wine of the Year. Thousands of Angels voted Tim Smith’s The Kick Shiraz 2022 the very best drop in 2024. Don’t miss your chance to find out why!
Tim Smith's "The Kick" Shiraz is sure to impress! Get ready for lashings of opulent lush fruit that speaks directly of its postcode.
A premium shiraz that is undeniably Barossa - aged in older oak it's beautifully juicy, with a fine structure and palate weight. It has all the great attributes of Barossa Shiraz - lifted plummy berry fruits with a touch of cedary-like oak aromas - yummm!
Just like the last vintage, this one sure to disappear from the Naked shelves in the twinkling of an Angel eye.
Best before
Easily cellarable for 20 years, but I love drinking Barossa Shiraz in it's primary youth. No need to decant-just pop'n'pour...
Serving advice
As above-no need for decanting-just pop'n'pour :)
Food match
Any good quality steak, with a token salad. Vegetarian option; any tomato based pasta dishes. n.b all of our wines are vegan and vegetarian friendly.
Contains sulphites
Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Tim Smith
- Many years ago, with fatherhood beckoning, Tim Smith said goodbye to his rock ‘n’ roll lifestyle for a steadier job. He was a lighting technician for big name bands before he saw the light (ha!) and swapped bulbs for barrels in the Barossa. It was the beginning of an epic journey that spans more than 30 years.
- Winemaking took Tim all over the world to France, Portugal and New Zealand as well as vintages at Aussie icons Yalumba, St Hallett, Tatachilla and Chateau Tanunda. And he became very good at it. In 2010, he won 'Best Shiraz in the World' at the International Wine and Spirits Competition in London and brought home a suitcase of Gold Medals from the Berlin Wine Show that same year.
- But after years making wine for someone else, Tim was itching to make his own, with his name on the bottle. With the support of Angels, he now walks to the beat of his own highly successful drum. And as a thank you, he makes three very special reds - just for them. How special? Well, In 2019, he took out the Barossa Winemaker of the Year. So quite special, yes.
