"Blue-chip friendship" ? What does it mean?
I am reading a book about wine. There are several wine toasts I can't understand entirely.
"May our blue-chip friendship forever pay dividends!"
What does it mean in this context? blue-chip friendship = Very trusted friendship?
Regards

Yes, I think it means trusted and high quality, but the main purpose of using the term "blue chip" seems to be to make a little joke about "pay dividends". e. make regular payouts to shareholders.
