About the wine
Unique Shiraz blend from the history books
- This Saperavi Shiraz is unlike anything you’ve tried before. It’s the inspiration of avant garde winemakers following their passion for creating, or recreating, unique wines.
- Inspired by ancient wines of long ago, Glen and Andrew have blended Georgian Saperavi grapes with high altitude Shiraz to create a truly ‘Naked’ wine - minimal intervention, unfined, unfiltered, unoaked and made in terracotta pots!
- The wine is bold and earthy, tasting like blackberry with a touch of dark chocolate and fruity spice, and a fair bit of zip on the tongue. Pour a glass to turn back the clock and experience what our ancestors were quaffing 8,000 years ago.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Glen Robert & Andrew Scott
- In 2012 Glen, a former research scientist, met Andrew, a hospitality guru and head restaurant Sommelier, at a wine tasting. They've been crafting (and arguing about) wine together ever since. In 2014, they stumbled upon derelict Mary's vineyard, 10 picturesque hectares of Shiraz and Viognier vines in Queensland's Granite Belt. Together they have nursed the vines back to health using organic practices, elbow-grease and TLC.
- Their exclusive 'La Petite Mort' label might seem a little macabre, but if you seek the true meaning of the phrase, you'll find that nothing could be further from the truth! It's about enjoyment- letting go of restraints and revelling in something new and maybe a little titillating! The boys take pride in crafting each wine to tell it's own regional story.
- As small producers from a small region, the Naked model gives the team the opportunity to propel the region's wines onto the national stage. Despite almost a century of winemaking history, Queensland produces less than 1% of Australia's wine. So, with the backing of wonderful Angels, it's high time we shout about these incredibly boutique wines!
