Piers Morgan’s favourite vegan wines

17th January, 2019 by Seren Morris

Vegan wine, anyone?

Although a lot of wines aren’t vegan due to the use of fining agents which are often derived from animals, such as gelatine, casein, bone marrow, egg whites and fish bladders, many winemakers use mineral and plant-based fining agents, such as bentonite clay, silica gel and plant casein. Or, they miss out the fining process altogether. The result? Wine that everyone can enjoy, omnivores and vegans alike.

To drink like Piers this Veganuary, take a look at our vegan wine guide, with red and white, rosé and sparkling, there is something for all tastes, and all dietary requirements.

Please stop giving this mediocre person a platform. Mr. Morgan touts misogyny, racism, and general contempt for anyone who does not think like him.
We can do better than such “commentators”.

That aside, I think there is an important underlying message here – that vegan wine is not a new thing, or a specially created product for the vegan market, like vegan sausages or something. There seems to have been a rapid shift from the position a few years ago, when it was widely, if wrongly, assumed that all wine was inherently vegan, to the view that vegan wine is somehow a category apart. It isn’t.

  Yup, this is exactly the point. None of those wines were vegan by design.
