Many people are allergic to the sulfites in wine. Because sulfites are a natural byproduct of yeast, they exist in all wine, but some wine have more sulfite in them than others.
Organic wine tends to have less sulfites than regular wine, and it is healthier in other ways - no pesticides for example. Organic products are much better for the environment and your body, so we strongly encourage them.
Here is a list of some organic red wines (carried by LCBO), with the amount of sulfur listed for most.
