Thanks for the vegan wine guides. Find attached a letter from Penfolds. I <br> have tried the Penfolds Organic Chardonnay, it is good and available from <br> Waitrose at £7.99. <br> Thank you for taking the time to contact us at Penfolds. We do not have <br> any other white wines that are suitable but our red equivalent - the

---------- Original Message ------------------------------ ---- <br> I have read multiple times that kosher does NOT signify vegetarian or vegan. And ingredients listed neither, just because Belgian law only permits a few ingredients does not mean that isinglass was not used, because they do not have to report that a filtering agent is an ingredient. There are many kosher &amp; organic wines, unfortunately few of them are vegan. Maybe we need to have a calling, letter-writing campaign to inform these places that if they made some changes they would attract a wider customer base. 20 years ago I could not imagine that there would be labeling of a &quot;V&quot; for vegan items and this has now happened-so it could be, with a little activism that we could influence the wine labelling as well. Even at Wild Oats the vegan wines are not labelled-they have color coding for everything else from kosher to organic to sulfite free, but under kosher &amp; organic it also says, may or may not be vegan, well for strict vegans this does not really help. I have been drinking Frey wines for the past several years, as I know that everything they have is vegan.

I have to agree that to my knowledge, kosher does not necessarily mean <br> that something does not contain what we might consider meat. I am not <br> convinced that Jewish law is as strict as many (most?) <br> vegans/vegetarians are.

I inquired with a Jewish colleague at work and kosher is not necessarily 100% vegan. They can guarantee there is no dairy but it may contain egg and be considered kosher, but that's not vegan. I deleted those emails before I completely understood the issue, but I would not say that kosher wine is all vegan however vegan wine IS kosher. :)

I would love if this were true and I have some kosher wines on my list <br> (<a target="_blank" rel=nofollow href="http://vegans.frommars.org/wine/?query=israel">[link]</a>), but I've seen <br> contradictory information in this. For example this article claims <br> that egg whites may be permissible by some kosher winemakers: <br> <a target="_blank" rel=nofollow href="http://www.vrg.org/journal/vj97jan/971wine.htm">[link]</a>

I was checking out your website, and I think it would be a good idea to <br> mention that all kosher wine is 100% vegan. Due to strict Jewish laws, <br> all wine must be made without any animal by-products whatsoever, no <br> meat, fish, dairy or eggs, so kosher wine is always a great choice for <br> vegans!

Not sure on the laws in South Africa for wine making, but there are a <br> fair range of winemakers there producing wine suitable for vegans. 47 <br> wines listed at: <br> <p><a target="_blank" rel=nofollow href="http://vegans.frommars.org/wine/index.php?country=South+Africa">[link]</a> <br> <p>Kumala have some details on their website for example: <br> <p><a target="_blank" rel=nofollow href="http://www.kumala.com/wines_vegetarian_wines.php">[link]</a>

thank you for positng your faq! i knew of some animal products that <br> were used in the wine making process, but i wasn't sure how they fit. i <br> did know of blood being used, and thought it was still (i didn't know <br> of the legal changes in Europe). does anyone know of other laws or <br> specific vinyards of south africa??

Welcome to the vegan wine group! I've been working on a first draft of <br> a vegan wine frequently asked questions (FAQ) document, which I've <br> attached.
