Bluet, Maine
Bluet began in an 1820s barn in Jefferson, Maine – a natural setting for a truly Maine wine. The fieldstone cellar turned out to be no match for winter’s cold and they moved to a respectable if less romantic concrete and steel building last year. Happily, this new space has allowed them to make a new wine in 2018: a Charmat Method wild blueberry sparkler, made in the style of Prosecco. Both the original Champagne Method and the new Charmat method wines are pure expressions of their single ingredient: Maine wild blueberries, each with a character of its own.
