Dark Horse Wines is not vegan friendly

Company email (December 2024) "We do not make any claims about being suitable for vegan or vegetarian diets since there are many variations in fining which may involve ingredients not suitable for all formats of the vegan and or vegetarian lifestyle. Generally, none of these ingredients remain in the wine because they are removed by filtration prior to bottling." Company email (January 2019) "Our winemakers tell us that gelatin and proteins from animal or fish products and milk or eggs have been used in winemaking for centuries and are recognized as traditional methods for wine fining, or clarifying. Generally, none of these products remain in the wine because they are removed by filtration prior to bottling. A few of our premium wines that undergo minimal or no filtration prior to bottling are exceptions and therefore may not be completely free of animal products. We hope that with this information you can make an informed decision that meets your dietary needs."
