For this week’s show, wine broker Alex Province reported on Gik blue wine. It’s kind of amazing. When Alex says blue, he means blue. Really blue. Alex compared it to the walls of our studio, which we know you can’t appreciate fully, but just imagine. It’s blue blue. Real-deal blue. You’ll think twice about putting something so blue in your mouth.
Produced by a Spanish startup, interested in the “innovative side of life,” Gik blue wine is made with a mix of red and white grapes, it is sweet, but has no sugar added, and it gets its blue color from two organic pigments; indigo and anthocyanin (which comes from the skin of the grapes).
It’s not available in the states yet, but when it is. . .
Listen to Alex describe this wine on a recent Faith Middleton Food Schmooze®.
