Wine and cheese pairings don’t go away just because you’re vegan and on Sunday, May 12, Vegans, Baby and Vegan Wines are proving it with a special wine pairing dinner featuring exclusive vegan wines which aren’t available anywhere else in the US, paired with the popular vegan cheese brand, VioLife, and three other courses at VegeNation Henderson.
The wine pairings come courtesy of sommelier Sunny Gandara of Vegan Wines, the counrty’s only all-vegan wine distributor introducing never-before-available wines to the States. (Bonus: grab yourself this special offer for Vegans, Baby readers and enjoy vegan wine in your home!)
“We want to showcase the amazing variety of vegan wine we are bringing in, as well as how beautifully these wines pair with vegan cheese and the rest of the courses,” says Vegan Wines founder Frances Gonzalez (who also founded Puerto Rico’s VegFest). “This dinner is the first-of-its-kind in Las Vegas and makes the perfect gift for mom … or anyone else!”
