Sorry to everyone who doesn't understand my question- some wines while obviously don't contain meat, still contain animals products such as egg, fish, etc. yes it might sound odd to some people but I think it has something to do with the processing part of the wine but I don't know much about it. So yes, that is why I am asking if anyone knows of any vegetarian wines. (Wines that don't contain or didn't use animal products in any of the production). Thanks

Wine is usually NOT vegan, since gelatin is very commonly used in the clearing process. It's easy to clear wine with other methods (i.e. using bentonite, a form of clay) if you make it yourself, but the industry often chooses to use gelatin because it is faster and/or cheeper than other methods..
here's a good link for finding vegan wines..

Huh? Wine is not only vegetarian, but vegan. It is grapes, which have been crushed and their natural sugars allowed to ferment in a wooden barrel. Then when ready, put into a glass bottle sealed with a natural or synthetic cork or metal screw top. At no time does wine ever touch anything animal based. I don't understand this question. That said, Australian wines of distinction are: Penfolds, Lindemanns, Rosemount Estate, Wynns Coonwarra Estates, Yellow Tail, Seppelt, Edwards & Chaffey, Devil's Lair, Coldstream Hill, Mount Mary, Mosswood, Leo Buring, Tollana, Black Swan, and many, many more.

I am finding this a very odd question. Wine is made out of grapes. I dont think there is any meat or animal products in it. If it does the email me and let me know. I've never heard of such a thing.

Try kosher wines. They can't have any animal or dairy components in them.
