I think I might have developed an intolerance to alcohol and in particular the more acidic white wines. I’ve spent the day sick in bed and vomiting/diarrhoea for several hours which seems to have stopped, thankfully.
I did have quite a lot to drink (2 glasses of fizz and a bottle of wine over the course of 5 hours with food).
I deserve a hangover but these ‘stomach flu’ type hangovers are vicious.
I’m pretty sure my friends think I’m being daft when I insist on buying a low acid wine but today is a grave reminder of why I do it.
Last night I made a judgment error in the the only low acid grape I could see (Viognier) was a blend with Chenin. Didn’t know that Chenin is one of the most acidic wines.
Anybody else have these intense digestive upsets after white wine?
