A handful of young entrepreneurs from the Basque region of Spain challenged the country?s wine establishment in 2015 when they started selling a blue wine.
Jos? Luis Ben?tez, the general director of the Spanish Wine Federation, whose members account for three-quarters of the country?s wine production, said the federation had not started the complaint against G?k, which was filed anonymously.
?Not being a lawyer, this whole dispute has left me with something that feels like a bad hangover,? Mr. Mac Carthy said.
?So our goal was clearly to offer something to people looking for a wine that was a bit more fun and crazy.
Under the European Union?s oenological regulations, whatever is not specifically authorized is considered illegal ? and blue is not an approved color.
