We Recommend: Give Gold as a Gift

At times we are really stuck up to give a gift to someone close, who has everything in the world you can think of. At times, you have to gift someone not so close, but you wish to give an impressive and yet impersonal gift.

Gold is a perfect gift for such occasion. GOLD wine, that is. You even have a choice of Gold Chardonnay or a Pink Gold for the lady, if you will!

The Golden Anniversary of persons close to you is worth celebrating with Gold theme. Gold Chardonnay-the Australian Chardonnay and Californian Pink Gold with 24 carat purity gold flakes dancing away inside the bottle may be an excellent idea.

Your friend's birthday is coming up. You want to gift something better than a bottle of ordinary wine wrapped in the golden wrap. Impress him with the GOLD.
It would be a novel way to express your love on Valentine Day with a quiet romantic dinner with your valentine, uncorking a bottle of Gold.

How about impressing your corporate client while entertaining him or celebrating a clinched deal by opening a bottle of Gold?

Legends India Pvt Ltd. has recently brought it to India for connoisseurs and it is already listed in various hotels and restaurants. Chardonnay and Pink version are both available in a few Delhi and Gurgaon retail stores and will be soon available in Agra and Chandigarh. For info contact manisha_parija@hotmail.com

I won't recommend it with pizza, bacon wrapped chicken or tandoori fish, or a casual evening with your guests- unless you want them to realise that you have ‘arrived’, or you want them to feel you treat them as gold- and the wine is only symbolic of that emotion.

I recommend for such special occasions, this Wine of Kings, or as a friend in California exclaims, ‘A Drink of the Gods!’

'gold wine' is a great novelty gift idea but if you are a wine connoisseur I would suggest it is quite the opposite. it is really flabby and could do well if it was matured for a longer time. im not sire the flabbiness was because of improper aging/less flavour or because of later addition of gold flecks. nevertheless a good gift for the latest 'love' season.
