The truth about wine

Why wine isn't always vegan

Most people assume wine is plant-based. It's made from grapes, after all. But the reality is more complicated — and most producers don't advertise it.

In the vineyard

What goes into the soil

Even organic vineyards routinely use bone meal, blood meal, and fish emulsion as fertilizers. These are slaughterhouse byproducts applied directly to the soil your wine grows in.

In the cellar

What's used to fine the wine

After fermentation, most wineries use animal-derived fining agents — egg whites, casein (milk protein), isinglass (fish bladder), or gelatin — to clarify the wine before bottling. They don't appear on the label.

What's in the bottle

Tasting Notes

Six distinct expressions of Spanish varietals, grown in Lodi's warm days and cool nights. Each one something to linger over.

Albariño
Lifted citrus, white peach, and a refreshing mineral edge.
Garnacha Blanca
Ripe pear, white florals, and a silky, textured finish.
Garnacha
Vivid red fruit, subtle spice, and an elegant sense of balance.
Tempranillo
Dark cherry, earth, and savory depth. Classic and inviting.
Graciano
Dark berry, floral lift, and a savory age-worthy profile.
Monastrell
Bold and polished — rich black fruit, warmth, velvety finish.

Your Curator

I'm Frances.

"I built Vegan Wines because I wanted to drink ethically without giving up beauty. Every winery I feature reflects that — integrity in the vineyard, in the cellar, and in the glass."

I've been vegan for over 30 years. I've spent nearly a decade studying wine. When I realized that even the wines I loved were grown in soil fed by slaughterhouse byproducts, I couldn't look away.

So I started looking for wineries that shared my values. I visited them personally. I tasted through their cellars. I built Vegan Wines to share what I found — wines that are extraordinary and entirely plant-based, from the soil to the sip.

I also farm biocyclically at Little Logan's Farm in Hudson Valley, New York — the first biocyclic vegan farm in the USA.
