About the wine
Fruity and fresh old vines blend from Connie
- After years under the thumb of corporate wineries Connie managed to break free and, thanks to Angel funding, something rather special has been happening in recent years; growers are now coming to her with their grapes instead of going to the giant wineries that dominate the Chilean wine industry.
- Maule Valley is one of the prime wine areas in Chile for growing top-notch red grapes and, for her first GSM blend, Connie knew old vines would be the best for the job. She harvested day by day to make sure each grape was at its optimum ripeness and then left the wine in plush French oak barrels for a year.
- The result? A rich, fruity red that’s beautifully balanced and boasts a lusciously long finish. Without your support this wine would never have happened so give yourselves a big pat on the back for being a huge part of Connie's success.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Constanza and Mariane Schwaderer
-
To growers back home in Chile, Connie’s a bit of a folk hero: she backs tiny vineyards, pays fairer prices, and fights for old-school Chilean varieties farmed the traditional way. That rebel streak got her the sack at a big winery (their loss) but turned out to be her making. Angels funded her first vintage, and she’s been part of the Naked story since the beginning (fun fact: she was literally our first-ever winemaker).
-
Marianne is Connie’s half-sister and these days, very much her partner-in-crime. They grew up apart (Connie in Chile, Marianne in Europe) but in 2011, after a Naked Tasting Tour, Connie visited Marianne in Berlin. That trip sparked a tradition of joyful summer reunions – until the sisters realised their strengths were perfectly matched and decided to join forces.
-
Connie’s wines have always been about showing what Chile can do when you treat the fruit (and the people who grow it) properly. They’re high-quality and ridiculously drinkable – the kind Angels come back for again and again. Now her winemaking vision is amplified by Marianne’s creative flair. Giving even more reasons to fall in love with the wines and the women behind them.
