Why all our wines are vegan

Many wine lovers are surprised to learn that traditional winemaking often uses animal-derived products to clarify the wine: isinglass (fish bladders), gelatin, egg whites or milk protein.

At Absolute Organic Wine, every wine we sell is vegan, clarified only with plant-based or mineral alternatives such as bentonite clay. We choose producers who share our commitment to sustainable, cruelty-free winemaking, and every delivery leaves Draperstown in plastic-free packaging.
