About the wine
Carlos has made a tiny parcel of this concentrated and vibrant red to thank you for your supportÂ…
- I’ve been making this wine since 2005 (the first time it was my wedding wine) but this is the first time I’ve sold it. I’m excited to be able to share it with my Angels to say thank you for funding me!
- My total production of this wine is still only 9 barrels! It’s made in artisanal way, almost 100% handmade trying to show the very best identity of traditional winemaking processes.
- Packed with intense, concentrated and vibrant red and black fruits with a spicy finish. It's a really interesting and exclusive blend of the best terroirs. I can’t wait to hear what you think of it.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Carlos Rodriguez
-
Before joining the Naked family, Carlos Rodriguez was a leading consultant oenologist. In plain English? He travelled all over Spain helping other people make their wines taste amazing. Despite his success, his ultimate dream was to fund his own winery – although he used to joke he’d need to rob a bank to get the cash.
-
His life changed in 2010 when someone forwarded him an email from us. He almost deleted it thinking it was spam, but luckily he didn’t and, as he puts it, "the rest is history". Carlos became a Naked legend and achieved the dream he always thought impossible – opening his own winery and making his own wines. All because of people like you.
-
Best known for his knock-out Riojas, Carlos uses his insider knowledge from years spent on the road to snaffle up the absolute best parcels of grapes Spain has to offer. And when he isn't crafting those award-winning Riojas? He swaps his winemaking hat for "dad duty," spending his weekends cheering on his kids at the football pitch.
