About the wine
Sweet spot wine
- A beguiling blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Malbec, and a touch of Syrah -- a Bordeaux-styled blend which is why he calls it BX.
- This shows off 2 of Jim's winemaker superpowers. He used his winemaker senses to unearth these two great wines and his infinite know-how to realize they are perfectly complimentary.
- This is a really unique mix of grapes and you owe it to yourself to give it a whirl.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Jim Olsen
Years Angel-funded: 2012-18
- Jim didn't just study wine at the University of California, he taught about it for 30 years.
- Before Naked, he worked mainstream jobs like La Crema and held quirkier side gigs - like growing Portuguese grapes in Californian soil.
- Jim spent decades in California cellars. At Naked, he found the most surprising deals for Angels - delighting you with Winemaker Fantasy wines (like White Barbera!) as a true champion of the rare varieties and vineyards in the state.
