Company email (February 2016)
"Nuestra empresa utiliza principalmente clarificantes de origen inorgánico (como la bentonita, una arcilla). Eventualmente, también se utilizan clarificantes de naturaleza proteica (como la gelatina). No es posible indicarle que productos contienen la clarificación únicamente inorgánica ya que la podemos utilizar indistintamente. La clarificación mixta bentonita / gelatina es bastante utilizada por la mayoría de los productores de vino."
[Google translation: "Our company uses mainly clarifying inorganic origin ( such as bentonite , a clay ) . Eventually , clarifiers proteinaceous are used ( such as gelatin ) .
You can not tell which products contain only inorganic clarification and that can be used interchangeably. Clarification mixed bentonite / gelatin is quite used by most winemakers"]
Company email (May 2013):
"Le confirmamos que, aunque nuestra empresa utiliza principalmente clarificantes de origen inorgánico (como la bentonita, una arcilla), eventualmente también se utilizan clarificantes de naturaleza proteica (como la gelatina). La clarificación mixta bentonita / proteína es bastante utilizada por la mayoría de los productores de vino."
[Google translation] "We confirm that, although our company is mainly used fining of inorganic origin (such as bentonite, a clay), possibly also used fining protein in nature (such as gelatin). Clarification mixed bentonite / protein is quite used by most wine producers."
[Note from Tania] "So, only some of them are vegan friendly, but I asked Ana which of them, and there wasn't answer."
