Verifying a Vegan status.
Our decision to certify is in line with our values regarding the practices used at the various stages of production and processing. In this particular case, the aim is to provide a guarantee that our wines do not contain any inputs of animal origin.
A Vegan certification verifies that a product meets specific criteria for being free from animal-derived ingredients and has not been tested on animals.
This helps Vegans, animal allergies-sufferers, and others who follow a plant-based diet to easily identify Vegan-friendly options.
Furthermore, this decision is in line with the international trend of pursuing more environmentally friendly food production and animal safety values.
"The global shift towards plant-based diets has sparked a revolution in the food industry, with major food manufacturers and retailers embracing the change. In Europe, plant-based food retail sales have surged in recent years as new products and innovations have come to market, enabling more consumers to purchase next-generation plant-based food”.
