About us:
In a nutshell, we’re all about making great wine better, for everyone. We partner directly with the world’s best independent winemakers to bring our members better-quality wine for a better price. No thirsty middlemen as far as the eye can see.
It’s a different way of doing things, sure. But it works. We’re one of the US’ favorite wine clubs, shipping over 1 million (!) cases a year to curious wine lovers. And with an ambitious road ahead, we’ve got no plans on plugging the cork on growth.
Our global team (we have offices in the UK and Australia, too) is entrepreneurial by nature, obsessive about customer experience and driven by performance. All things that make Naked a great place to grow both personally and professionally. And yes, we like wine. A lot – we even have a wine fridge in the office.
