Wow wow wow. Where do I start with our exceptional experience with Amanda and David at The Naked Vigneron?
The welcome meal for our destination wedding was hosted at The Naked Vigneron. Coming up the love drive and seeing the restored barn sets the tone for the evening perfectly; upon walking in to the softly-lit space, we were welcomed with glasses of wine and some delicious aperitifs as we saw the beautifully decorated tables arranged for our group of 85.
Amanda and David's hospitality is infections - they led the charge with their wonderful staff to serve drinks, speak with guests, and ensure a seamless evening.
Our dinner was phenomenal. Perfectly portioned family-style food full of flavor. Our guests couldn't stop raving about the delicious dinner stating that it was some of the very best food during their trip to France - let alone great for a wedding or a welcome meal.

Wines were lovely, and a good mix with a fizzy, white, rose and red provided, all organically produced from start to finish. Fantastic value for money IMO, and much more personable, informative and filling(!) than something provided by the larger...
Read more4 of us visited the NV after giving 48 hours notice by email. David was a patient, knowledgeable and attentive host. We walked the estate, looking at the vines. We saw the next step in the NV's evolution - a dilapidated barn which will be transformed in time to host weddings from next year (2018). We saw the equipment that processes and stores the wine. Then finally, we tasted the product itself. Exquisite! A beautiful setting. An amazing and inspirational couple. We wished we had stayed for food. We also wish we had more room in the car to take more wine home. Thank you NV for a memorable and enjoyable afternoon. Our fingers are crossed for...
