I’m trying a wine from http://wineaccess.com . It’s incredible. Unlike anything I’ve had from Naked. Yet. It also cost 4x the avg bottle I order on Naked and took 5 weeks to get here (rather than 1-2 days).

Going to put on my most elitist face and say that Naked is not in the business of providing quality wines. They focus on emerging producers in quirky locations. Starting a winery is expensive and hard. Naked have found a way to subsidise emerging producers...

...and that’s great, some of them may produce incredible wines in 1-20 years when they have found their feet, but for the most part they are not there now. Much better value to be found in producers who have been going 40+ years who already know what they are doing.

All that said, I had a bottle of Benjamin Darnault Repasse de Montagne and while you could never call it subtle or refined, it packed a massive punch for the price, would definitely drink again.

Agreed.
@SuperMugatu opened my eyes to that. Don’t think that’s what the business has to be long term though. Daniel Baron pretty nice sign of things to come. Am I right@ElliotTurn? -
There is no reason why Naked can't evolve to higher price points in the future IMO. As Naked scales, the higher quality winemakers will also be attracted by the opportunity
