In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise and sour cream. Stir until well-blended.
Add the crumbled bleu cheese to the bowl. Use a fork to gently mash some of the cheese, leaving some chunks intact for texture.
Pour in the white wine vinegar and lemon juice, then stir to incorporate.
Add the garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all the seasonings are evenly distributed.
Gently fold in the chopped chives, reserving a small amount for garnish if desired.
Taste the dressing, and adjust the seasoning with additional salt or pepper if needed.
Transfer the dressing to a serving jar or container and cover it tightly. For best results, refrigerate for at least an hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
Serve chilled as a dressing over salads, as a dip with veggies, or with wings.
