Welcome to the Viva! Wine Club. We hope that you enjoy what we believe are
the best and best value selection of vegan wines, beers and spirits in the
world.
We can guarantee that these drinks are completely free from any animal products.
Most of the wines are also organic and have won awards in competitions and
praise in the press, showing the high quality achieved where it matters most – in
the taste. Vegan and organic wines are winning more and more friends and the
number of vineyards changing their methods of production is growing rapidly.
Vegan Wines
Wine is usually clarified with fining agents that
are derived from animals. Products such as gelatine (made from pig, cow and
horse
bones) and isinglass (from fish swim bladders) are widely used to remove
proteins, yeasts and other items in suspension in the wine before it is bottled.
Some wines
are clarified using battery egg albumen, an agent more commonly used for
red wines, or casein (milk protein). The vegan alternatives used in our wines
are
bentonite and kieselguhr – natural mineral products which perform the
same function without leaving any residue. Our wines are simply filtered
or clear
naturally in the barrel over time.
Organic Wines
Our wines have the style and the characteristics
of the best that their country and region can offer – but are made
using grapes grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilisers. These chemicals
destroy
the environment, wildlife and human health. Also our wines are low in sulphur
dioxide
and so are more suitable for people prone to allergic reactions to wine.
All our organic growers are regularly checked by organic associations and
meet
the EU standards governing organic production.
Note: Wines 248 and 259 (the Azabache Riojas) have been removed from the Wine Club, as they are no longer vegan.
