Important safety note

[pbray]

White wine = migraines. Just say No. There was a reason you switched to drinking reds, remember?

(It's a sulfite sensitivity, more pronounced with certain types of white wines. And I can't believe I had to do this to myself twice within a month to remember that this was the problem.)

interesting...

Usually I have people insisting that it's the sulfites in red wines that give them trouble... what styles/varietals give you trouble?

(curious in general and for research purposes)

Ouch :(

I have the opposite experience: white = OK, red = all the hangover, none of the buzz :P.

So mostly I drink beer or Strongbow.

Oh, wow! I'm so sorry. Have you tried organic wines that don't have the sulfites? (I THINK they don't have them....)
