About the wine
Limited release Cabernet from a Young Gun
-
You may not see this Cabernet again, so get it while you can! It comes from Young Gun winemaker Coby Ladwig, made in WA where Cabernet is king. This Mount Barker red packs a serious punch, and is seriously good value for money.
-
This wine will lure you in with its delicate nose, but don’t be fooled - it carries some hefty power. It’s effortlessly mouth filling and juicy, with plenty of red fruit flavours, fine tannins and a long finish.
-
Hungry? Roast leg of lamb with garlic, herbs and all the trimmings would be a delightful pairing. And make sure you give it at least half an hour to breathe before drinking - the nose and palate will really open up.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Coby Ladwig
Brought up in the southern wilds of Western Australia, Coby spent endless hours amongst the vineyards where his Mum worked. It was no surprise he was headed for the winemaking life! With a degree under his belt, he returned to his hometown “to seek out the very best, small sub-region sites to make exceptional single-vineyard wines that can compete with the best in the world.”
Over the next sixteen years, he used his silky winemaking skills to help the stunning West Cape Howe, Singlefile and Rockcliffe wineries earn 5-Star ratings from wine critics far and wide. And in 2017, he earned a Top 50 spot on the highly regarded Young Gun of Wine list.
- In 2018, thanks to the support of Angels, Coby became a liberated Naked winemaker with the freedom to handcraft small-volume boutique wines, just for you. And the same remains true today, “We always want to over deliver. It’s really exciting to be part of the Naked wines community,” he says with pride!
