4. The problem with this study is it was done in Spain
To the best of my knowledge i don't believe they use any sulfates in their wine. American made wines are loaded with them.

6. They clone thier grapes too
so Dubya would ban Spanish red wine that fights cancer.

But he doesn't mind allowing his tobacco buddies killing people, because as we all know who bankrolls liars.

8. Ectually...
Amaricans done't "put" sulfites in the wine. The miniscule suflfites that are in the wine are from spraying the vines against mildew and cleaning the tanks to remove bad molds. Unless someone is hyper sensitive to sulfites, you will never know they are there. The government, however, in the interest of public health makes the wineries include the line "contains sulfites." Which, as much as I hate having to include it on labels, is not a bad thing.
