Winemakers Notes.
I love writing my newsletters. I send them out three or four times a week and you can sign up for them below (if the pop up didn’t already get you). But occasionally I have the urge to write about something that goes beyond the confines of an email. A longer format piece that’s infrequent, personal, and intended to shine a light on something that’s affecting my winemaking world. This is where you’ll find them.
Why I call my wine vegan and why nothing can be as vegan as you want it to be. Probably.
I’m often pushed on why I consider my wines to be vegan. This usually works in two ways; Customer A has no idea that wines aren’t all vegan while Customer B challenges me on how my wine can be vegan when there’s a chance some animals get hurt during harvest. Both points require a person to have their own, very personal, opinion of what veganism means but I’ll come back to that in a bit.
