Ingredient notes

What to know about red wine vinegar

Red wine vinegar is made by fermenting red wine twice, first into alcohol and then into acetic acid, and it carries the trigger profile of both stages. Fermentation makes it high in histamine, aging builds tyramine, and sulfites are present both from the original wine and as an added preservative. So while vinegars vary, red wine vinegar tends to hit histamine intolerance, tyramine sensitivity and sulfite sensitivity all at once, which is why a vinaigrette or marinade made with it can bring on flushing, headache or a stuffy nose.

Watch for

  • High in histamine from the double fermentation of the wine, a common flushing and headache trigger
  • High in tyramine, worth watching on an MAOI or a tyramine-migraine diet
  • High in sulfites, both naturally from the wine and often added, which can trigger wheeze or headache if you are sulfite sensitive
