Avaline Vegan Wines

All wines are not created equal.

If you’re anything like me, you may have a love/hate relationship with vino. Personally, it gives me the nicest buzz of any alcohol, but even a glass can serve me up a massive headache and less than pleasant digestive issues the next day. Endless Google searches and anecdotes from friends have lead me to believe the added sulfites, non-organic grapes, what type of barrels the wine is aged in and a bunch of other possible additives, could explain why wine does not love me.

Thankfully, NONE of those after effects came with the crisp, light, organic, vegan wines I received from Avaline Wines. And in case you’re saying to yourself “wait, wine isn’t vegan?!”, check out this info here.

Avaline has got to be the cleanest ingredient list of any wine I’ve ever had, and it definitely translates in taste. I typically stick to darker reds or merlots, but their simple Rose and White bottles were unbelievably refreshing in this summer heat and paired with fruit. They’re so light, floral, sweet and crisp, and are almost TOO easy to drink. As in, we had no problem polishing off a bottle with a late dinner! I sometimes feel bloated or sluggish with wine, but actually felt slightly invigorated after drinking each bottle. I drank them too fast to experiment, but I absolutely think they’d be lovely as a frose base 🙂

Side note: Avaline was created by Cameron Diaz AND Katherine Power, who heads up the vegan beauty line, Versed, if you’re into trying celeb-based brands! Order a bottle (or 6) here and enjoy!
