“Sober October” is what health-conscious people call the alcohol-free month before the bustling and social holiday season. In “Dry January”, the extra pounds you ate over Christmas and New Year’s must be reduced again. In between, most of us have a good time. They feast and drink as much as they can eat. I do not want to discuss the meaninglessness and meaninglessness of these decisions here, after all, you can enjoy life very well without alcohol. No one should have to give up culinary delights, as calorie-sensitive foods can be delicious, including the enjoyment of wine. Even the best gastronomic has noticed that non-alcoholic wines are getting better and better, making a good snag with a meal.
Vegans don’t have to do without wine
People’s habits have been changing for a long time. A healthy and sustainable lifestyle is one of the biggest mega trends of our time. Wine consumption has been declining for years as many people reduce their alcohol consumption or give up beer, schnapps and the like altogether. The vegetarian and even vegan lifestyle is booming. If you don’t want to give up completely on animal products but want to try this diet, you can go vegan for a month in January. “Veganuary” has the advantage over “Dry January” that you don’t have to do without a good glass of wine. And you don’t have to worry at all about the quality of the drops. Because the use of animal products in the production of fermented grape must can be avoided easily. For this reason, vegan wines are not usually labeled as such.
In Coop’s wide range of wines, you’ll find many vegan wines, not all of which are labeled that way. The main distributor also has a range of non-alcoholic drops in its portfolio.
Inspire yourself!
I’m happy to present you a selection of excellent vegan wines and a Prosecco you’ll hardly notice it’s been non-alcoholic.
These 4 wines will get you through January
