What makes a wine vegan? + How to lead your life authentically

What makes a wine vegan? Usually, if any animal products are used in the winemaking process that would definitely make it non-vegan. Animal products are commonly found in fining agents used to break down left over particles in wine that winemakers want to get rid of before bottling. I touch on this topic so that you can understand why a wine would not be considered "vegan".   I also get into a book I recently finished called "The Last Lecture" by Randy Pausch.  Randy was a computer science  professor at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburg, Pennsylvania who was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer.  He had a couple of months to live and decided to make his last lecture about achieving your childhood dreams and gives us so many good life nuggets in his lecture.    I get into this book and the takeaways that really impacted me while getting into how you can lead your life authentically. Tune in now to get all the details on this red blend I open up from Argentina as I get into the Last Lecture and give you important takeaways to help lead your life authentically and accomplish all your goals effortlessly.     1:10 - Introduction to today's wine 2:20 - Red blend  2:55 - Body4yoga best yoga studio 3:22 - What makes a wine vegan? 4:20 - Casein protein 5:05 - Florida plug for Argentinian wines 5:55 - The Last Lecture book information 6:22 - The wind is winding  8:50 - Childhood dreams 10:00 - How to lead your life 10:40 - Commit to yourself 11:55 - It's ok to adjust your goals 13:45 - Visual & Olfactory analysis 14:50 - Bug in my wine 15:25 - Tasting notes 17:20 - Rating of the wine     Today's wine: Domaine Bousquet Gaia Organic Red Blend 2020 $16 GET WINE HERE (only found 2021 vintage online)     Connect with me on IG @sipandgrowpodcast   Get your FREE Wine Aroma Wheel at https://stan.store/nicoledipasquale    Check out my Italian Wine Guide at https://stan.store/nicoledipasquale
