The Strasser Collection California Dessert Wine NV (500ml)
About the wine
Your only opportunity to get this special treat
Dripping with flavors like candied cherry, rich chocolate and toasted nuts – this is a veritable dessert in a glass.
Angel funding let a Napa legend have a little sweet fun, making a one-time wine from dark and delicious varieties like Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, Petite Sirah and traditional port-style varieties like Tinta Roriz, Tinta Cao and Touriga.
Rudy says this is “a wine you can swirl, smell and sip all night long” – with crème brûlée or cherry pie by your side – plus it will age a decade. Your $18.99 Angel price makes this an irresistibly sweet deal. Once it’s gone, it’s gone.
Best before
This wine can spend the next 10 years tucked away in your cellar.
Serving advice
Dessert wines are mainly for sipping at the end of the day. It is best to sit the bottle upright for a day or two before opening, then pour slowly. There is no need to decant it unless you plan on drinking the entire bottle in one sitting.
Food match
Cherry pie, chocolate ganache, blue cheese, crème brûlée, or just sitting in front of a fire after a long day skiing.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Rudy von Strasser
Rudy von Strasser is a Napa legend — he played a huge part in founding the Diamond Mountain District, famous for its Cabernet. By rallying everyone in the region, he put the AVA (American Viticultural Area) on the map in 1999!
Rudy met Naked through Alex Farber — he was looking to expand his portfolio with some beautiful Petite Sirah, but didn’t have enough room in his winery.
Angel funding helped make that Petite Sirah possible. When he brought us his other wines, we knew we’d hit the jackpot! Rudy’s now able to share his wide range of Diamond Mountain District wines with Angels across the country.
