Gik, a Spanish start-up based in Biscay, Basque Country showed off what could be the world's first ever blue wine, Saturday.
Creators Aritz Lopez and Taig MacCarthy were motivated by a desire to revolutionise an industry: "Gik was born for fun. We are a very young group that wanted to create something different and searched for the sector to which most needed a revolution. What is better than the wine industry? It is a very traditional sector."
The wine is created from Spanish grape varieties and turned blue with the chemical anthyocyacin, a natural pigment extracted from grape skin, and indigo, a natural dye derived from the woad plant.
