Maybe someone can answer more conclusively at a later date. I have a moderate sulfite sensitivity that leads to an itchy rash/mild hives within a few hours if I drink normal wines. I am drinking my third glass of 3-year-old Gekkeikan Plum Wine (over the course of two days) with no noticeably adverse effects yet. The bottle's label shows no indication of sulfite content, but it is circa 2007 and imported so it may not have been subject to the same FDA laws requiring labels to state sulfite contents.
Gekkeikan Sake is sulfite-free, but a web search did not reveal if the same is true about the Plum Wine variety of alcoholic beverage.
As it is true that Gekkeikan Sake is Sulfite free, However Gekkeikan Sake Kobai Plum wine that is produced in Folsom CA; is a white wine base with plum flavoring added to it. If you would like a Plum wine that is sulfite free, we recommend our import plum wine. Our import plum is made with the Japanese Ume plum and has been aged for 3 years before bottling. If you have any further questions please feel free to call 916-985-3111 or email us @ info@gekkeikan-sake.com. Thank again for your inquiry. Gekkeikan Sake
