Market Price
To show you the value you're getting as an Angel...
We regularly benchmark a selection of our wines against up to three comparable wines on the market. The Market Price is based on the price of those wines.
What do we mean by benchmark? We taste them blind against our own wines, or we use our market knowledge (over 40 years between us) to set an industry standard Market Price.
If you buy one of our wines and disagree with the Market Price, or it's not your cup of tea, we'll add a credit to your account. For more info, see our FAQS.

About the wine
This classy Stellenbosch Cab Sav is Arco's thank you for bailing him out in his time of need, and he's paying his good luck forward
-
Arco was on the point of going bust in 2020 when the SA wine industry was hit by Covid, just as he was recovering from a battle with cancer. Thankfully, our very own Johan Kruger put him in touch with us, and Angel support helped keep him afloat. Arco’s now sourced and blended this super-premium wine to pay you back while helping out some of his winemaker mates who’ve also been hit hard by Covid.
-
This juice would normally end up in a famously posh boutique wine that we’ve sworn not to mention (it’s a doozy) but because of South Africa’s lockdowns and bans, it was sitting unsold in tanks. Arco’s emptied the tanks to bring this first-class wine to you while putting some money back in the bank for his mates.

This is a lovely well-rounded Cabernet Sauvignon from one of the warmer regions in South Africa. It’s created a wine that on the nose exudes blackberry notes as well as some eucalyptus and sweet spice. The mouthfeel is full and robust with silky soft tannins and flavours of cherry, plums and dark chocolate. Yummy.
Best before
This wine will age well, drink between 5 to 8 years.
Serving advice
Decant two hours before serving at around 18'C
Food match
The Focal Point Cabernet Sauvignon is a great food paring wine due to the soft tannins. A lovely slow cooked beef short rib finished of with a charring on the braai. Also a lovely meat or vegetarian lasagna and as a after dinner cheese platter wine with strong cheddar or old Amsterdam cheese.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Arco Laarman
-
We are deeply saddened to share the news of the passing of Arco Laarman. Introduced to Naked through our tight-knit South African winemaking community, he was a much-loved member of our winemaking family, and his exceptional talent will never be forgotten.
-
A true original, Arco's passion for wine began in his teens. At just 19, he moved to the Cape, working three vintages with a top-tier winery. Quickly rising through the ranks, he established his own winery in 2016, seeking out unique parcels of grapes. Chardonnay was a favorite, but he loved his Cinsault and Syrah too.
-
We are so grateful to have known Arco and share his passion for wine. Please join us in sending our love to his family and friends, and in raising a glass to a wonderful man. He leaves behind an incredible legacy.
