About the wine
Young, fresh and versatile
- Mike's attention to detail when blending grapes from three sub-regions is an essential part of maintaining the style and quality of his Sauvignon Blanc. Quite simply, he's sourced fruit from the best growers to optimise it's natural quality and then craft wines with minimal intervention.
- The Rapaura grapes give structure and a herbal lift and the Lower Wairau grapes gift the palate with passionfruit and floral notes. The Waihopai Valley component adds citrus drive and weight to the mouth feel.
- This magical combination translates to a seriously approachable and balanced drop sure to please any white lover! The value for money is outstanding, so why not try it with the perfect match of your glass and some wonderful company.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Mike Paterson
Vintages in California, Burgundy and Australia, and 10 years making wine for one of the leading estates in Marlborough, have seen Mike working with some of the world's best winemakers and vineyards. And it's had a profound influence on his winegrowing philosophy.
Wanting the freedom to make wine in his own name, Mike found the opportunity to get Naked too hard to ignore. No longer at the mercy of big brands and wholesalers, he could finally create wines his own way that celebrated the influence of human touch and the relationship between friends, growers, fruit and season. And, unique to Naked Wines, to find out what the people who drank it thought of it.
Mike's aim has always been to showcase his beloved region. "Our ambition with Lay of the Land wines is to represent the pureness of Marlborough's striking landscape, but with balance and texture and in turn immeasurable drinkability." The fact that the wines have attracted international awards is just a bonus!
