It has been an exciting month at Naked HQ, with news that we’re finalists in 3 categories of the prestigious Online Retail Industry Awards (ORIAS). The category we’re most proud of is the People’s Choice Award as it is YOU, Angels, who got us there. Thank you, as always, for your ongoing support. We’ll let you know the results late July! In this update, hear about an inaugural event you can be part of, new website changes to turbo-charge your Naked experience and a chance to try wines from our 51st, 52nd and 53rd winemakers in just one click.
Cheers 🍷

We love the sense of adventure from John B of Ultimo, NSW who revisited a variety that had been on the backburner for a while. Glad you enjoyed Rod Easthope’s Sav Blanc, John. Your review gets our vote and hopefully inspires other Angels to retry a blast from the past!
Don’t forget to rate your wines! We’ll pick our favourite and the Angel who wrote it will receive a mixed 6-pack from that winemaker. So, you’ll not only get more personalised recommendations to ensure you always drink great wine, you could win more of the wine you love!

The inaugural Montvalley + Naked Wines Golf Classic is ON!
|
What are you doing on 7 September 2019? Fancy a day in the Hunter Valley, NSW, surrounded by stunning vineyards, a delicious catered lunch, wine tasting, local tunes, and a round of golf on the private par 3 course at Montvalley!? Of course you do! You don’t have to play golf to enjoy this event – we are on a vineyard, after all. Make a weekend of it and book your tickets now (limit of 4 tickets per Angel).

We’ve put our money where our mouth is
|
You recently heard of our commitment to provide Angels with the fairest price for wine – that’s the price decided by you! We proved this by dropping the price on 21 wines you told us didn’t hit the mark, and automatically credited the difference to Angels who previously bought those wines. Now, we’ve turbo-charged our transparency by showing EXACTLY how we determine the market price of our wines, displaying the competitor wines we’ve benchmarked against on each product page. Angels, this is just the beginning. Stay tuned for more exciting developments!

Unique. Edgy. Adventurous. Meet Leighton Joy.
|
|
|
In the 7th episode of ‘Drink Naked’, we chat with one of our youngest winemakers, Leighton Joy, who embodies the mantra “walking to the beat of their own drum”. He handcrafts wines the way that he wants to (not how he’s told to), filled with honesty, integrity and a huge dash of adventure. In Leighton Joy’s world, there is hope, morale is high and the potential for groundbreaking exploration is exciting, career-defining and awe inspiring.
