Sake Gassan Junmai Ginjo Mountain Moon is premium sake that ranks high with the Beverage Tasting Institute. This fine sake is crafted by the Yoshia Brewing Company, which is a renowed and award-winning brewery that crafts elegant sakes. This brewery is located in the village of Yasugi and was founded in 1743. This particular brewery has crafted sakes using almost two centuries of tradition that has been handed down through the generations. Since these sakes are crafted by a sake master, the production is small, but extremely detailed. The water used to produce the sake is used from the springs around the region of Yasugi. The quality of rice, water, and skill are the perfect marriage to bring together an award-winning harmony of flavors. The technique of the brewing master is so cherished that the Japanese government has asked the brewery’s master to share his skills with the next generation. The Sake Gassan Junmai Ginjo Mountain Moon features wood-like aromas that include beets, mushrooms, and fruits. This distinct sake has won over 10 awards for taste and is one of the best sakes on the market today. This sake featured at Timeless Wines is unique, easy to drink, and features a smooth and velvety texture that the expert wine connoisseurs will truly remember.

Our winemaking "style" is solely determined by this place or terrior we call "Paradigm." Winemaking is agriculture when you own your vineyards and are able to farm them to promote the very best Earth will give you. All of our selections of wines are made from five varietals on the estate. Every wine is 100% farmed and grown by us.
Complexity in our wines supported by luscious fruit and acidity is our hallmark. Our efforts during harvest and barrel cellaring concentrate on maintaining the freshness from the first day we handpicked each vineyard block. Simple winemaking protocols are employed while crucial “timing” oriented winemaking decisions rule each day.
