Years Angel funded: 2019-2023
Paso Robles wine growers Randy & Cheryl Phillips firmly believe in miracles — particularly, their Miracles Ranch estate — a sweeping 100-acre vineyard property they planted back in 1992 way before this Central Coast wine town developed a world-class reputation.
They've cemented their place in Paso Robles wine history as early grapegrowers of a now prestigious region. Their grapes have been sold to famous wineries for years and years, featured in iconic blends that sell upwards of $60 per bottle.
Now you're getting special access to the wines handcrafted from their award-winning vineyards. By funding this husband-wife team you’re getting exclusive access to Cabernet, Syrah and more from their historic paradise off Oakdale Road.

Michael and Anne Dashe have worked with many top wineries — Ridge Vineyards, Far Niente, Chappellet, Château Lafite-Rothschild, Château La Dominique — but have developed style all their own. Elegant, balanced wines made with minimal additives, natural yeasts, and grapes from small family farms are their signature!
In their urban winery on Spirits Alley (an old Naval Airbase in Alameda, CA), Michael and Anne are using non-industrial winemaking techniques that allow them to highlight the fruit and emphasize the wine’s balance — crafting California Zinfandels in a unique style.
Jesse Katz is a winemaking wunderkind who spent his formative years working with legendary names like Bordeaux's Pétrus (he even experienced a harvest at Screaming Eagle) before becoming America's youngest head winemaker at 25 with Lancaster Estate.
In 2009, Jesse launched his Sonoma winery, Aperture Cellars, where he’s already earned dozens of 95+ Robert Parker Wine Advocate Scores since then. He’s got decades of harvests before him and he loves the community you've built at Naked so much, he wants to make award-winning wines with you, too.
“Angel support is amazing," said Jesse. "Working with Naked Wines is a wonderful way to be creative and we’re excited about a growing partnership now and in the future.”

This niche Napa specialist offers world-class Cab with exceptional value

In addition to his day job running a world-famous Napa winery, Ted Henry runs a small-production Cabernet house that focuses on his favorite parts of the valley: Stags Leap District and Coombsville.
“For me, this is mecca — where great wine is made. I’m a kid in a candy store. Napa is a fascinating place — so well preserved as an agricultural region even though it’s near the city," Ted says. And while it’s flush with top-shelf, top-dollar Cabernets galore…
Ted insists there is incredible value in the niche eastern hills and prime pockets of Napa Valley most wine drinkers don’t yet know. “Angels’ support can help the quest to find great value in top quality Napa Cabernet. Thank you!”

For founders Randy and Bradford Lange (themselves, identical twins), the success of the family's sustainable Lodi winery, wines, and vineyards is multigenerational — they carry a rich tradition as farmers and stewards of Northern San Joaquin Valley's wine lands.
The LangeTwins Family has vinted wines from their estate grapes since 2005, but they’ve worked with the likes of wine giants for decades — including Robert Mondavi — to establish new vineyards, experimental varietals and trial innovative farming techniques.
Now Angels are helping the LangeTwins Family cultivate an impact through their love of sustainable farming and support of a community. They say, “if you want to go far, go together” — they’re in wine for the long haul, just like you!
