Adoption Story
BACKGROUND:
Our friends David Laity and Ali Rees at Goodwill Wines, in the Yarra Valley are showing enormous support for animals by giving BAWCS $20 for every case sold of cruelty free specially selected wines.
David & Ali suffered great loss during the Victorian bushfires of Black Saturday, and were humbled by the donations and support from the Red Cross Bushfire Appeal along with the generosity of the Australian public. They created Goodwill Wines to ‘pay forward’ that generosity by finding the best wine around and giving half the profits to their customers’ favourite charities.
The Goodwill Wines selections for BAWCS are completely cruelty free. No milk, eggs or fish products were used in the production process.
BAWCS has our own label, featuring Charlie, a pup that was adopted through us.
So pick your favourite! The floral, biscuity tones of the Viogner will complement your favourite spicy dish or curry. The peachy Chardonnay is perfect for an easy afternoon with friends. The fruity Cabernet Merlot Rose blend is wonderful with barbequed vegie kebabs. And the warm taste of vanilla and berries that dance through the cabernet sauvignon are custom made for wintery nights in front of the fire.
(okay okay, we stole the ‘blurb’ from our friends at Animals Australia, but hey, it is a good write up! and we are a member society.)

BTW if you’re thinking vegan wines wouldn’t taste good, check the labels on the wines you are currently buying. Alot of them DON’T use animal products and they taste great right? The most common animal ingredients used in wine making are isinglass (a very pure form of gelatine from sturgeon fish bladders), gelatine (extract from boiled cow’s or pig’s hooves and sinews), egg whites (or albumin) and caseins (a protein from milk). Many wines are made differently – hence vegan wine. Give ours a try!
