Wine Headaches?

Some people experience headaches while drinking wine. Many believe it may be caused by sulphites which are added to most wines (sulphites also occur naturally during the fermentation process).

Generally, the cause of headaches during wine consumption are most likely caused by histamines. Histamines, found in the skins of grapes, can cause headaches. Red wine will affect a histamine sensitive wine drinker more than white wine because red wine has spent more time in contact with grape skins
