Naked Wines Tasting Tour – Everything To Expect

Prepare yourself for one of the best wine events, coming to a city near you! The Naked Wines Tasting Tour is back for Summer 2026, sweeping from Belfast on 11th June, across to Glasgow and Edinburgh, and then working it’s way down through England before the final slots in Norwich on 21st June.

They have just 11 days to visit 10 cities and reach as many of their members and curious newcomers as possible, to meet the winemakers, sample wines and buy on the spot, and even be in with a chance of creating a winning blend that Naked will bottle and sell to their customers!

This tour offers something different to the various other wine festivals out there. Not just in the atmosphere but what you can get up to. It doesn’t take itself seriously, but you will learn a lot without even realising it.

The focus here is on interactions with the winemakers. You won’t just be meeting representatives, you’ll be meeting the people in the winery themselves. Learn their stories, their inspirations, and how they used these to shape the final wines. Of course, enjoy the hands-on tasting as well, where you’ll be able to simply pour yourself whichever wines you fancy. It sounds small, but it cuts out that awkward element of patiently waiting for your wine to be poured as everyone stands in awkward silence and is inevitably disappointed by the measly portions. This time, the winemakers have all their concentration on talking to you about their product. It’s very relaxed, and very engaging.

Where is the Naked Tasting Tour visiting?

Naked load 30+ winemakers onto a bus and commit to their whirlwind tour around the UK, hitting major regional cities. Make sure you save the date for your nearest and invite a few friends for a fun day out.

How much is it?

Tickets are £35pp for both newbies and existing Angels. Depending on which of these you are, you’ll get this money back one way or another – but I’d say it is easily worth £35 to taste such a vast amount of quality wine (be sensible) and meet the winemakers!

Current Naked Angels will instantly get their money back (and more) with £35 off every 12 bottles they buy on the day. That’s pretty handy given you’ve got the perfect opportunity to try and fall in love with some new wines.

For Naked Newbies this is the ultimate way to get a taste of what Naked and their Angel community is all about. You’ll get £45 off your first order, making the ticket money back and more.

The Blending Lab

Now, if tasting lots of new wines doesn’t do it for you, perhaps the opportunity to create your own will. Here's a picture of Pete from Manchester finalising his blend in France with the legendary Benjamin Darnault – it could be you this year!

The Blending Lab is a returning feature, and a very popular one. Working with the Tofterup Brothers, you'll have the chance to create a winning white blend from scratch! The best part is that the winner will have their wine on sale on Naked’s website, so you can see what the rest of the Angels think of your blend. This is a rare opportunity to become a winemaker without any of the stress behind it. Take it!
