About the wine
A Victorian hidden gem
- Handpicked from a special vineyard in the Strathbogie ranges of Victoria where the soil is old, nutrient-poor and free-draining, making for exceptional fruit. Once through fermentation in French oak barrels and some time on lees (the dead yeast) it’s patiently matured for 10 months before bottling.
- It’s classically creamy texture and refreshing acidity is packed with white peach, grapefruit stone fruit and a subtle nuttiness from the oak. A really pretty and delicate wine!
- Unlike Chardonnay’s from the more well known regions of Yarra Valley and Mornington Peninsula that carry heavier price tags, it’s affordable too. And at Naked you don’t have to spend big bucks to enjoy a tip top wine!
Best before
7 to 10 years. It has the acidity to really let the wine age if you are so inclined, adding secondary bottle age butteriness and toastiness.

Meet the winemaker - Nina Stocker & Kate Day
Nina Stocker and Kate Day are multi award-winning winemakers whose lives have been inextricably linked since they became besties at Uni. They've since chalked up more than 30 years combined experience in some of the greatest and most historic winemaking regions on the planet in France, Italy, the US, Portugal, NZ and here in Aus.
Nina became Chief Winemaker for Catalina Sounds, Crowded House and Nanny Goat in NZ, scoring the prized Air New Zealand Trophy for Best Sauvignon Blanc. Kate was winemaker at the esteemed Willunga-100 winery in McLaren Vale when two of her wines were finalists in the prestigious Jimmy Watson Trophy. But creating a wine label together was their elusive dream.
It finally became a reality the day they knocked on the door of Naked HQ. Within minutes of trying their wines and realising what a truly formidable team these two made, the Two Pairs deal was done and dusted. And the name Two Pairs? A chance meeting at Kate’s wedding where Nina meet, and then married, the best man - Kate’s husband's identical twin brother. Thus creating... two pairs!
