What animal ingredients are commonly found in wine?

Vegan Wine Guide - Frequently Asked Questions
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). Very occasionally blood has been used as an additive - "sangre de toro" means "bulls blood" - but rarely literally any more. This ingredient was declared illegal for use in European wines in the aftermath of the outbreak of BSE (mad cow disease).

Are the ingredients in wine on the label?

Vegan Wine Guide - Frequently Asked Questions
Generally not. In Europe at least it is not permitted by law to include the ingredients on wine. The Co-op supermarket is braving the law by defying this and they do provide the ingredients to their own brand wine. See here for further details. some processing ingredients are largely removed from the end product, some winemakers don't consider isinglass for example to be an "ingredient" in their wine, as they remove it (apart from traces) before bottling the wine.
