Why are there fish bladders in my wine!? We’re kicking off our summer season (and rosè season!) by diving in to one of our most surprising discoveries thus far: a great deal of wine we often find and drink is not vegan. In this episode, we talk all about the process of wine-making, where/when animal products come in to play, and what components actually make it into the final product. We also discuss how you can (or can’t) check the ingredients in your wine, the environmental impact of the wine industry, and tips for spotting vegan wine and other alcohol.
