Which Champagnes are vegan-friendly?

Unfortunately if you’re a vegan, some Champagnes do contain animal products. Trace amounts of milk, egg, fish and gelatine can be used when processing Champagne, either for fining, taste, or other reasons.

Thankfully, many brands are vegan-friendly:

Vegan-Friendly Champagnes:

Moët & Chandon

Champagne Lanson

Piper-Heidsieck 

Perrier-Jouët – Except Grand Brut

Champagne Palmer

Champagne Thiénot

Champagne Cattier

Veuve Clicquot Ponsardin Champagne

Non-vegan Champagnes:

Bollinger – Gelatine is used in the winemaking process, but no trace of it remains in the finished product. 

Louis Roederer – Isinglass (fish glue) is used in order to clarify the wine before bottling, but is extracted later on.
