My sister has celiac disease and can't consume anything with gluten in it.
I was hoping to get her some wine for Christmas, and wanted to know if you had any gluten free wines.

Thank You,

Henry

Dear Henry,

I had to look up for the information myself as I have never heard of anybody using gluten as a clarifying agent! It seems to be indeed a possible alternative very rarely used in the clarification of white wines. However the following articles seem to conclude that there is simply no risk whatsoever in wine regarding the presence of gluten.

Article 1
Article 2


In any case none of our producers use this product so you are clear!

All the best

Dr Mic
