About the wine
Elevated in every way!
- At 200m above sea level in Marlborough's southern Waihopai Valley lie the low yielding vines from which Mike and his team plucked only the best grapes possible, late in the cool season. Handled with incredible care from vineyard to bottle, something truly special was crafted. Angels with a love for the Marlborough need look no further for Top Shelf quality!
- The wine has slightly cooler fruit expression due to proximity of the vineyard, showing a blend of pea pod and flowers layers. This leads to a fine boned but textured palate full of sweet and sour citrus from lees contact.
- Delivering a unique and singular vineyard expression, Mike has combined all the hallmarks that top Marlborough Sauvignon is known for - aromatic lift, concentration, balance and a long succulent finish. Get a few of these safely in your next case before the vintage is all drunk up!

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!
