About the wine
Refreshingly elegant Provence pink from the man who made the World's Best Rose
-
This is a rare treat from the man who made the World’s Best Rose (according to Decanter and the IWC). Julian Faulkner is a rising superstar in Provence, winning awards left and right, and now he’s turned Naked, this critically-acclaimed wine is his welcome gift to you.
-
Provence is pretty much the gold standard when it comes to first-class, elegant Rose like this. The only trouble is finding one that’s both delicious and doesn’t break the bank is like looking for a needle in a haystack. When it’s made by a winemaker of Julian’s caliber though… you know you’re getting the good stuff.
-
It’s a proper Provence Rosé, with that classic pale pink colour that catches your eye straight away. On the nose, it’s got complex hints of strawberries, cherries, peach and melon. Then take a sip and it’s pure luxury, with bright, crisp and elegant fruit flavours that roll over your tastebuds with textbook Provence finesse. Julian is so excited to share this wine with Angels and he can’t wait to hear what you think.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Julian Faulkner
-
Julian Faulkner is a second generation winemaker and rising superstar in Provence. Over the past few years, he’s caught the eye of the world’s top wine boffs, with glowing reviews from the likes of Jancis Robinson and a double whammy of ‘world’s best rose’ awards from Decanter and the International Wine Challenge. Not a bad track record.
-
It all started when he was a kid, helping out his parents in the vineyard. Julian didn’t know it yet, but the bug had bit him. In 1999, unable to turn a profit, his folks were on the verge of selling up when Julian set aside a promising career in the environmental sector to take over as winemaker, with a vow to turn the family business around. Since then, the estate has gone from strength to strength and Julian runs the operation with a green conscience and a big focus on sustainable techniques.
-
After being let down one too many times by traditional wine corp, Julian reached out to us. Now, he can’t wait to make his standout wines for Angels with the safety and security of being a Naked winemaker, and he’s teaming up with some super-passionate growers to create new and exclusive Provence wines just for you.
