Tips for Making  Vegan Balognese:

There are multiple ways to sweeten your sauce. A sweet wine. Sweet vegetables. Or you could use brown sugar like I do in my recipe. I love the flavor it adds. And then pair it with the richness of the butter and you have a delicious marriage of richness in your mouth.
