Wines and histamine
Around one per cent of the population suffers from histamine intolerance. Histamine is present in foods such as mature cheese, smoked fish or meat, as well as sauerkraut and other fermented vegetables.
Wine also contains histamine, though only in considerably smaller quantities. White wine contains 3 to 4 times less histamine than red wine. Even so, alcohol is known to be a histamine-liberator and can influence the histamine reaction.

Delinat checks all wines for their histamine content.
All Delinat-certified wines are analysed in the laboratory for their histamine content. Even if a wine contains only a little histamine, the designations “low-histamine” or histamine-free” are not legally regulated, in fact, quite the opposite: According to an EU regulation, they must not be used in conjunction with wine.
All the wines on this page have been tested by us for histamine and they contain less than 7 mg of histamine. Whether and in what quantity people with histamine intolerance can tolerate a wine is something that they will have to try out for themselves. As a rule of thumb, the following applies: Dry wines contain less histamine than wines with residual sweetness and young wines contain less than mature wines. Histamine-sensitive people should not consume wine together with food with a high histamine content (for example cheese or smoked fish).
More about histamine and wine can be found in the section Weinwissen Histamin (Wine know-how, histamine).
