About the wine
Versatile Sweet Spot hero!
- Get ready for extraordinary raspberry notes coupled with the classic grippy tannins of Sangiovese. This is a varietal that originated in Tuscany and is commonly used to create the region's world famous Chianti blend. In Australia it is fast gaining recognition as a brilliant food wine.
- Kevin sourced this wine from a single vineyard known for producing exquisite Sangiovese from the Padthaway, famous for it Italian varieties.
- The bottle will disappear fast once you've experienced each sip's long, savoury and elegant finish. Made in small quantities, smart Angels will secure their dose of this future Naked classic today before it's all drunk up!
Best before
The structure lends itself to long cellaring, enjoy now or until 2028.
Serving advice
An hour of breathing would open up this wine a little more while it is still young.
Food match
Fire up the BBQ; Kevin's top tip is to go with boned leg of lamb or some thick succulent rump steak. This is an extraordinarily versatile wine.

Meet the winemaker - Kevin McCarthy
- Word of the burgeoning Mornington Peninsula region with its cool maritime climate piqued Kevin’s interest and, along with wife and fellow winemaker Kathleen Quealy, they extrapolated that Australia finally had the ideal home for Pinot G.
- Kevin, ever the heretic, continues along the path less travelled, inspired by winemaking experiences around the globe. Kevin's winemaking family all share his passion for Italian varietals.
- What does Naked mean to Kevin? The vocal and libationary support of Kevin's early customers was a key ingredient for the success of Pinot G in Australia. Direct contact prior to Naked required a visit to the winery, extolling the Pinot G message one glass at a time. Naked has transformed how Kevin interacts with PinotG lovers, allowing him to share the Heresy story with Angels while they experience the wines.
