Enjoy Italian Wine Tastings Safely with Sulfite Sensitivity

Imagine strolling through sun-drenched vineyards in Tuscany, ready to savor Italy's legendary wines – only to fear sulfite-triggered headaches or reactions. For those with sulfite sensitivity, wine tastings can feel like navigating a delicious minefield. But what if technology could transform this experience?

Understanding the Challenge Sulfites (preservatives like E220-E228) occur naturally in wine but are often added during production. While Italian wines contain lower levels than some New World counterparts, reactions range from headaches to breathing difficulties. Traditional tastings rarely disclose detailed sulfite info, leaving sensitive drinkers guessing while surrounded by untranslated Italian menus.
