About the wine
Gold Country twist on Italy's 'wine of the people'
-
Fruit forward with juicy flavors like pomegranate, cherry and plum – this red is oh-so-smooth and soft.
-
Angel funding gave Matt access to this Italian grape variety from high-elevation Amador County vineyards in California Gold Country, where the iron-rich soils and sunlight are ideal for growing concentrated Barbera.
-
“Barbera from Amador County is up and coming and this wine is an excellent example of how well the variety does in this area,” says Matt. He only made a few hundred cases, so get a few bottles and taste Matt’s stateside take on this popular Italian red.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Matt Michael
- Matt has spent over 2 decades making 90+ rated wines in Sonoma County at renowned wineries like Quivira Vineyards, Sebastiani, Robert Young and Baldassari, so he’s primed to make wines for you!
- Matt’s mission is to bring Angels lesser-known Mediterranean varieties like Picpoul, Barbera and Grenache. They’re unlikely heroes here in the states but really flourish in Amador County in California's Sierra Foothills. He’s pumped to show off what this region can do.
- Matt first met Angels in 2020 as a recipient of Naked’s COVID Relief Fund. You helped him stay on his feet when his Windsor tasting room was closed. Fast forward – now Matt’s working with premium grapes from one of California’s finest under-the-radar appellations – his dream come true!
