I saw an thread from a couple of years back with when Naked Wines was quite new but has anyone tried anything exceptional from them since?

Just had our first baby and one of the "for Dad' Bounty gifts is a £60 voucher!

Was thinking of going for an age-worthy a mix of:

Cheers

Yeah, they actually tell you where to get the vouchers on their site. I'm completely with MM on this. Much better deals elsewhere.

I hate Naked Wines and all trendy wine clubs/cults. Their wines are all marketing and no concentration. That said, Mike Patterson former top winemaker at Jackson Estate in NZ has just accepted over £500k to make 3 wines for NW. He has left JE. Does this mean NW are at least trying to iimprove their quality or that Mr Patterson has sold his winemaking soul to the SugarFairy.

There is something "one of us, one of us" about NW and the club. Really hard to find their wines reviewed oustide of the site too.
At least the voucher is a one off purchase rather than club membership.
After some brief searching I think you can earn these discounts by just remembering your password for Amazon..

Goosegogs - that reminds of the the Laithwaites Black Stump range, coming from the Yellow Tail winery/mega factory. Nice wine, the Durif at least, but a slightly wolf in sheeps clothing feel to it.
