“The second you take a sip from this bottle, a crisp burst of flavors hits your tongue. I first noticed hints of apple and rose, but after this initial burst the flavor keeps transforming into a more subtle plum, maybe even peachy flavor. I've had a lot of wines that hit you immediately with strong notes that transform into something more subtle, before leaving a kind of disappointing or even weird aftertaste. With Born Gold, this is so not the case - you'll find yourself enjoying the whole ride!”
“I was first introduced to Born Gold about 15 years ago, and I still enjoy getting a bottle now and then. A little out of my wheelhouse, but it is good to stretch yourself sometimes.”
“I LIKE different profiles in Sake: Born 'Gold' is in the clean and somewhat dry profile. It is refreshing served chilled and a bit of the rice grain flavor comes through. It is also versatile in pairing with chicken, seafood, or pork. I will add this to my monthly rotation.”
