About the wine
Coonawarra Cabernet on a mission
- Grapes were sourced from a premium vineyard in the Coonawarra, where older vines that bear less fruit and an organic approach mean the fruit is pristine and concentrated in flavour. 2021 was a cracker of a vintage, and gentle winemaking and ageing in french oak barrels has produced an elegant Cabernet.
- Luscious and layered, it’s full of fruit and hints of brooding spices but very limited in stock. If you're in time to grab a share, you'll be treated to classic cassis fruit with hints of cinnamon, followed by plums and black cherry and a pinch of eucalyptus.
- The elegance, concentration and balance in this wine delivers everything you want in a Coonawarra Cabernet. And the profits go to a great cause close to Nina’s heart - The Royal Children's hospital “Kookaburra” ward. And we’ll match it to double the impact.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Nina Stocker & Kate Day
Nina Stocker and Kate Day are multi award-winning winemakers whose lives have been inextricably linked since they became besties at Uni. They've since chalked up more than 30 years combined experience in some of the greatest and most historic winemaking regions on the planet in France, Italy, the US, Portugal, NZ and here in Aus.
Nina became Chief Winemaker for Catalina Sounds, Crowded House and Nanny Goat in NZ, scoring the prized Air New Zealand Trophy for Best Sauvignon Blanc. Kate was winemaker at the esteemed Willunga-100 winery in McLaren Vale when two of her wines were finalists in the prestigious Jimmy Watson Trophy. But creating a wine label together was their elusive dream.
It finally became a reality the day they knocked on the door of Naked HQ. Within minutes of trying their wines and realising what a truly formidable team these two made, the Two Pairs deal was done and dusted. And the name Two Pairs? A chance meeting at Kate’s wedding where Nina meet, and then married, the best man - Kate’s husband's identical twin brother. Thus creating... two pairs!
