Wines without SULFITES

[Thomas]

If you do not have a doctor's input, where did you get the idea that your wife is allergic to sulfites, and what is the allergic reaction to which you refer?

There are an awful lot of pseudo-scientists making and disputing claims about foods and additives; one needs to look into the agendas of these alarmists. In the case of wine and sulfites, you can trace the nonsense to a few anti-alcohol groups and a whole bunch of duped writers and medicos who followed their lead, not to mention the public.

Yogurt, cheese, bread and packaged baked goods all contain sulfites, and more so than most wines. And there is no scientific evidence that sulfites cause headaches.
