The Ultimate Guide to Vegan Wine and Beer

Not all wine and beer is vegan — but finding the ones that are is easier than it used to be, especially at DrinkWell where vegan status is confirmed and displayed on every product page.

Why isn't all wine vegan?

Wine is made from fermented grapes — but between pressing and bottling, most wines go through a fining process to clarify and stabilise them. Traditional fining agents are derived from animal products: isinglass (from fish bladders), egg whites (albumen), casein (milk protein), and gelatin. It's not a legal requirement to list fining agents on wine labels, which is why most supermarket bottles don't mention it. At DrinkWell, we confirm vegan status directly with producers for every wine in our vegan collection.
