Vegan wines have no animal products added to them in the wine making process. The animal products that are sometimes used in wine making include eggs and a protein called casein, which is derived from fish bladder. These are both used in the fining process , which removes particulates from wine before it is bottled.
Zingy and refreshing white from Cotes de Gascogne in France.

Country: France
Region: Cotes de Gascogne
ABV: 12.5%
Grapes: 75% Colombard, 25% Ugni Blanc.

A lovely Australian Chardy that benefits from more of the tropical fruit flavours of the grape, so often overpowered by oak in other wines.

Country: Australia

Tesoro de los Andes Malbec Bonarda

Argentina's famous Malbec, blended with the lesser known Bonarda grape variety, giving this wine a delightful twist of individuality compared to other Malbec wines.
Dark, damson and savoury overtones on the palate with a smoothly rounded finish – a delightful expression of a huge, brambly Malbec
Country: Argentina
Region: Mendoza
ABV: 13.5%
Grapes: 60% Malbec 40% Bonarda
Malbec needs no introduction, and has become as closely associated with Argentinian wine as Pepperoni is to Pizza! - well in my mind (and stomach) it is……! Bonarda on the other hand is a lesser known ‘ingredient’ of Argentina’s wines. More often thought of as a grape variety originating in the Piemonte region of Italy, however arguments abound about whether this grape variety in Argentina is actually the same as the Italian one. Who cares, unless you are studying for a doctorate in Ampelography (the study of grape vine identification). All we care about is that it makes delicious wines and when combined with Malbec it offers a uniquely Argentine experience.

From the true masters of Cape Cabernet - the benchmark Stellenbosch Cab. 2015 was the winner of platter 5* best Cabernet Sauvignon in South Africa.
This is the only red wine produced by Le Riche that is not 100% Cabernet. A reincarnation of Le Riche's classic Cab Merlot blend, this is an exceptionally lovely, classically Bordelaise blend. Restrained but appealing on the nose with typical red fruit aromas of plum, cherries and milled pepper are balanced by an aroma of finely ground graphite found in Left Bank Bordeaux. The palate is a masterpiece of blending - hugely appealing with juicy mouth-filling flavours of red berries, plums and smoky hints balanced with a fine, soft tannic structure and rounded finish. Finely structured and phenomenally fine, Christo Le Riche has more than stepped into his father’s shoes!
Country: South Africa
Region: Stellenbosch
ABV: 14.5%
Grapes: Cabernet Sauvignon, Cinsault, Petit Verdot
The backbone of the range, it’s a phenomenal expression of Stellenbosch Cabernet Sauvignon when it’s allowed a maritime influence, and it is this that sets it apart and marks it as truly Bordelaise. With carefully selected fruit from the cool gravelly slopes facing False Bay to the rich red granitic soils around Stellenbosch, the wine gains its complexity by expertly blending fruit from 4 specifically diverse terroirs.
