Although wine is made with grapes, some conscious consumers are careful to support only companies that product vegan wines—free of fining agents like egg whites and proteins from animals, fish bladders and milk, which are commonly used.
Vegan Wines sets itself apart as an all-vegan wine club that shares 100% plant-based wines with its members. As founder Frances Gonzalez puts it: "Vegan wines is not just about wine, it’s about knowing exactly what you’re drinking." Gonzalez is passionate about touring vineyards and winemaking facilities to find out what goes into the making of each wine so that every one offered is 100% vegan.
On top of receiving three different bottles of wine every two months, Vegan Wines members also get tips on pairing wine to plant-based foods, plus exclusive event invitations.
