> Repeated studies have shown that “wine experts,” when administered blind tests, are unable to distinguish between cheap and expensive bottles, or different varieties of the same color wine, or even whether the wine they’re drinking is red or white. In the end it’s all just fermented grape juice.
As an American I am angry that they make red wine and white wine, but no blue wine. That damn unpatriotic California wine industry. I will drink Windex instead, and that will show them. It all tastes the same anyway. /g
- josefrichter 5y agoThey do make blue wine, even in California. For example Blaufränkisch can be found in California too. There are many other varieties called “blue”, many of them also I Cali I guess. And in fact, in my language Pinot Noir is actually not “black” but “blue”.
- csdvrx 5y agoI would love to buy a light blue wine - make it the same color as the flag and you've got my money! There're already blue potatoes, so cmon wine industry, please make it happen!

- mynegation 5y agoI cannot believe these are produced unironically.
- csdvrx 5y agoWhy not? Some of us want to drink like patriots, red, white and blue :)
