Introducing the world's first natural blue wine(2)

Gik背后的六个年轻的革新者,都是二十来岁的年纪,他们把从拉里奥哈、萨拉戈萨、莱昂和卡斯蒂亚-拉曼恰的葡萄园收获的白葡萄和红葡萄混合起来酿制独特的葡萄酒,但是他们说多样性对酿造宝蓝色葡萄酒并不重要.他们在酒中加入花青素(葡萄皮中的一种天然色素)来产生这样的蓝色,还加了靛蓝(从菘蓝植物中提取的一种染料)来让这种蓝色看起来更加动人.

As for how this blue wine actually tastes, the Gïk website doesn't reveal too much, instructing prospective clients to "Try to forget all you know about wine and ignore all the preconceptions and standards regarding [the] wine industry and turn a deaf ear to what the sommelier told you in the wine tasting last week." Gïk is supposedly a sweet wine due to an added non-caloric sweetener.

至于这种蓝色葡萄酒味道如何,Gik网站并没有透露太多,它指示未来的客户们"努力忘却你所知道的有关葡萄酒的一切,忽视所有关于葡萄酒业的预想和标准,不要听信品酒师上周告诉你的酒是什么味道."Gik可能是一种甜酒,因为里面加了不含热量的甜味剂.

Interestingly enough, the people behind Gïk have no real expertise making wine, but they all "wanted to create something really innovative" because Spain's wine industry was "missing a little revolution." "We were raised in a country with a strong wine culture, but wine has always been a beverage put on a pedestal," Aritz López said. "So we thought about how it would be to have real people making wine for real people, not a wine made by experts to pseudo-connoisseurs."

非常有趣的是,Gik背后的这几个年轻人并没有真正的制酒技术,但他们都"想创造一些真正新颖的东西",因为西班牙的葡萄酒业"缺乏一点革新.""我们在一个葡萄酒文化浓厚的国家长大,但是葡萄酒一直都是一种高高在上的饮品,"阿里特斯•洛佩兹说道."所以我们就想,普通人酿酒给普通人喝会怎样,而不是专家给假鉴赏师制酒."

Blue wine is not currently available in the US, although the company certainly has plans to expand there soon. It can be ordered online in Spain, France, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, and Germany, for the price of about $11 per bottle.

美国现在还见不到这款蓝色的葡萄酒,当然,这家公司已经有了计划,将很快向那里扩张.现在,西班牙、法国、英国、荷兰和德国都可以从网上预订了,每瓶售价大概在11美元左右.
