• I believe that there is no greater translator of terroir than Chardonnay. I think this shows off my style of winemaking perfectly, I just had to share this wine with you.
• Chardonnay grapes and the cost of barrels make it difficult to grow the volumes. When I heard there was an opportunity for a new Chardonnay in Naked Wines’ range I couldn't resist putting this wine together for the Angels. Thank you Angels and Naked for believing in me and helping me fund this awesome Chardonnay.
• Light gold in colour with a green tinge, on the nose there is complex citrus, green apples and pears followed by a light toasty character from the 30% new French Oak. These flavours integrate on a seamless, well balanced palate with a butterscotch, citrus mineral finish.

• Nina spotted this seriously zesty Chardonnay when she was travelling around Oz and had to nab it all, just for you Angels. 
• This wine is fresh and vibrant, packed full of lemon, kaffir lime leaf and melon and just a hint of toasty oak to compliment the citrus. 
• Serve with Asian ginger and soy poached chicken salad… or something less fancy but equally delicious like fish and chips. 

• For years, Danie and his family have been great at growing top-notch fruit for expensive Stellenbosch designer wineries. But the Steytlers get little credit for it, and were paid a pittance. Now he’s finally turning this fruit into wines of his own.
• Danie's Chenin is a real premium, plush drop with waves of lime, apples and honeysuckle flavours.
• It’s dry and fresh, but rich and ripe at the same time, thanks to its time in oak barrels. No matter what style of white wine you enjoy, there’s something for everyone here.

• When Elgin superstar Richard Kershaw heard one of his region’s top Chardonnay producers was in trouble due to lockdown, he knew he had to call the Angel cavalry hotline. 

• That’s because, while South Africa’s perfect soils and cool climate conditions already make it a goldmine for posh, European-style wines, Elgin Valley kit is like 24 carat liquid nectar, and Richard couldn't bear the thought of it going to waste. By far SA’s coolest wine region, Elgin has a super-long growing season which means lots of time for the grapes to ripen slowly and develop uber-complex flavours, like the ones you’ll find in this Ubuntu white.

• This is fine wine quality Chardonnay to rival some of the best in the world. It’s got all those classic Chardonnay characteristics, rich citrusy aromas of lemon, apricot and nectarine, a delicate hint of buttery oak. And then you take a sip and it’s all-wrapped up in with an elegant, creamy mouthfeel that lingers on the palate ‘til the very last drop.

• My Premier Cru Mont de Milieu Chablis is from 30 year old, South-facing vineyards. The grapes are grown on limestone soils where we carefully prune the vines to ensure that the yields and terroir effect are optimised.
• Thanks to Naked Wines funding, we were able to buy the new oak barrels and gain access to the high quality grapes that I've used to create this wine for the Angels.
• This Chablis is a remarkable combination of refreshment and longevity, with delicate floral notes, a dense, round feel and exceptional minerality. It's a rich and powerful wine that is delicious now, however it will develop further in bottle for more than a decade if stored correctly.

• Gewürztraminer is known to be as fresh as a daisy and as floral as a flower shop and this does not disappoint.

• Take a  big whiff and you’re walking through a country garden. Rose petals, apple blossoms and jasmine aromas, with bright citrus, quince and pear on the palate, delicious!

• Serve slightly chilled with an aromatic Thai curry and enjoy the ultimate flavour sensation.

• If you’ve ever tasted a wine from Chablis, you’ll know this region is famous for rich and elegant whites loaded with intense fruit flavours and creamy oak complexity. It’s a white wine lover’s paradise, but what you may not know is there’s another level above your regular Chablis. And this is it.

• If a top-notch Chablis is a 10/10, Sebastien’s Grand Cru kit breaks the scale. This is an exceptionally rare and prized wine - only made at 7 sites around the region - that’s very tricky to get your hands on. Luckily, you have an in with Chablis superstar Sebastien Christophe, who’s brought this super-posh drop to the UK, just for wine-lovers like you to enjoy.

• Tasting this wine is quite a journey. First, it’s got those lovely rich, intense fruit aromas that Chablis is famous for, with notes of tropical peach and pineapple. Then you take a sip and it’s just got layers upon layers of flavour that hit all corners of the palate. It’s like yummy peaches and cream with just the subtlest hint of vanilla from the oak, and it’s so subtle, so excellent. It’s really delicious right now, but if you were ever going to age a white wine… we can only dream of the possibilities.

• Chablis is famous for super-exquisite white wines with gorgeous minerality and purity, and Premier Cru is the best of the best. Only very special parcels of grapes, of consistently jaw-dropping quality, get this distinction.

• When you add an expert winemaker like Benjamin Laroche into the mix, whose family has been making first-class Chablis for centuries, you’ve basically reached the pinnacle of classy French white.

• This luxurious Premier Cru is finely balanced with aromas of white flowers and pear, rounded out with delicate hints of toast and vanilla from a lick of French oak. Then on the palate, elegant white fruit flavours mingle with a rich minerality for a pure quality Chablis. It's next level.

• Tao Platon grew up just a short drive from the Biscay vineyard where this wine was made. So it’s full of childhood memories of the people, places and delicious Basque country food he enjoyed growing up. 

• This wine comes from a picturesque single vineyard with ideal grape-growing conditions. Its steep, south-facing clay soils, warm sunny weather, and cooling sea breezes make for super-ripe Hondarrabi Zerratia fruit - a local variety that grows in small-berried bunches, concentrated with lush and aromatic flavours. As soon as Tao laid eyes on this beautiful patch of grapes, he knew he couldn’t pass up the opportunity to make a wine here.

• Txakoli is a Basque speciality that growers have been making there for generations. It’s a classy white with lots of lovely texture and minerality and just the slightest hint of a sparkle. It’s not a fruit bomb but its fresh and complex aromas - laced with tropical fruits, fresh nectarines, yuzu, and pineapple… with a subtle floral and herbal tinge - will charm your socks off.

• This appellation is famed in Burgundy, it is one that I have always loved. The winery where I make my Saint Veran, has a small parcel of Pouilly Fuisse vineyards close by and I was able to secure this small parcel especially for myself and Naked Wines.
• By giving me support and letting me look out for new projects and special vineyards, I am able to commit to making wines, confident that the Naked Angels will love them.
• This is a creamy, buttery Burgundy that boasts a rich dollop of lemon curd to round it off perfectly with and is a wine that will age well over the next few years.
