Betty, some wines are "fortified," that means they have more alcohol than the
average table wine. Sherries and ports have 18 percent (or more) alcohol. Table
wine has an average of 8 to 10 percent alcohol. Also, you might be allergic to
sulphites in the wine as well. Those are the only two reasons I can think of to
explain your situation.
