“the grapes used were grown in *Ohio*”

Quite a few wineries in Ohio. Mostly to the east of Cleveland, up along the lake. Lotsa grapes grown here. I don’t drink wine though. In 20 minutes I’ll have a terrible headache. Same with grape juice.

Me too. Now I just drink brandy and never get a headache.

Agree. Lots of great wineries here in NE Ohio. All the way east to Buffalo. I have heard the nitrates cause headaches n some wines do not have them

Was at Farinaccis last night. Last minute decision or I would have let you know. Wasn’t feeing that hot. Did have 2 glasses of red w my meal

FYI... Red wine headache ("RWH") is a headache often accompanied by nausea and flushing that occurs in many people after drinking even a single glass of red wine. This syndrome can sometimes develop within 15 minutes of consumption of the wine. Red wine tends to have more histamines (which cause blood vein constriction...versus anti histamines which is contained in many cold/allergy meds) in it than white wine does. This is because white wine is made without skin contact, while red wines sit with the skins for a while to get their red color.

I used to get *RWH* too...and discovered that if I sip a lot of ice water between sips of red....the headache never develops....seems to dilute the tannins. Either that, or don’t drink half of grape products produced....that’s a depressing thought. :(
