About Naked Run Wines
Born and raised in the Barossa Valley, the wine industry has always been a big part of Steve’s life. From an early age he ‘worked’ in his family’s small vineyard at Williamstown, which ultimately lead to a career in the wine industry. In 2003, after finishing an Oenology degree and a Viticultural diploma at the University of Adelaide he joined the team at Pikes Wines in Clare where he is now the Senior Winemaker. He is passionate about making wine and particularly loves working with Riesling, a variety well suited to the Clare Valley. His approach to winemaking is careful management in the vineyard and minimal winemaking intervention, allowing him to capture and showcase specific vineyard sites in every wine he makes. In late 2005 Steve and his wife Laura purchased a small vineyard in Sevenhill which grows Riesling, Shiraz and Cabernet fruit. They live on the property with their three children Mason, Buddy and Evie.
