Amie (organic vegan rosé wines)
Amie Wine is a brand of wine that offers organic rosé vegan wines, which donate a portion of sales to clean water charities. This ‘wine for friends’ is produced in the South of France.
While millions of plastic water bottles get bought and littered in England, we forget that we have the luxury of clean safe water from the tap. Yet despite being essential for living, over 3 million people die each year (mostly children under 5) from lack of access to clean safe water.
This also leaves families trapped in poverty, as some have to spend hours each day collecting water from miles away, rather than studying or working.
Where to buy cases of organic vegan wines
The Goodness Project offers many organic vegan wines, and also produces corporate gifting services.
So if you fancy sending a bespoke hamper of wine and vegan chocolates to a colleague, this is the company to order from (it also plants trees for each order, and donates each month to chose animal welfare charities).
VEO Wines is an online shop that sells organic vegan wines, and nothing else. So all the hard work of finding the best brands has been done for you by experts.
You can buy pre-mixed cases or mix your own case. Not all the wines are local, but you can filter by country to choose English wines from Oxney Estate (England’s largest organic vineyard).
How much wine should we drink (?!)
If you like your wine a bit too much, know that NHS guidelines are per week:
- 6 glass of wine or
- 6 pints of beer or
- 14 units of spirits
So if you only drink wine – that’s one glass per night, with a day off! You’ll then at least be drinking within proper guidelines!
Most councils collect wine bottles (wrap broken glass in thick paper and bin). If bottle banks are full, there is usually a phone number to call (don’t leave bottles outside full banks). You only need to rinse them quickly, and you can also leave on screw-top lids and labels.
