About Naked Wines plc

Naked Wines is not just an online wine retailer; we're trailblazers on a mission to enable enthusiastic wine drinkers to enjoy great wine without the guesswork. 

Founded in 2008, on the pillars of quality, choice and fair pricing, we set out to create the most inclusive wine club in the world - dedicated to transforming the wine-buying experience and empowering people to make their own wine choices, and championing world-class independent winemakers. We've proudly been delivering outstanding wines to our customers (who we call Angels) for over 15 years.

Our business model is simple yet innovative: Naked Wines funds the production costs for winemakers upfront, allowing them to focus on creating exceptional wines without the financial burdens of traditional wine production, while passing the resulting savings back to our customers.

The virtuous circle is a win-win for both wine lovers and winemakers, and enables us to deliver superior benefits to our customers:

- Better quality wine

- More choice

- Personalised wine recommendations

- Elimination of guesswork and uncertainty

- Fair payments for all involved

Our customers have direct access to 299 of the world's best independent winemakers and over 2,500 quality wines from 23 countries. In the last financial year, we served more than 723,000 Angels in the US, UK and Australia, making us a leading player in the fast-growing direct-to-consumer wine market.
