The Agency has issued an Allergy Alert advising anyone with a sensitivity to sulphites not to drink this wine.

EH Booth and Co Ltd has withdrawn the affected batches from sale and contacted the relevant allergy support organisations, which will inform their at risk members of the withdrawal.
Notices will be displayed in all stores to alert consumers to the reasons for the withdrawal, and the actions they can take if they have bought the product.
Sometimes there will be a problem with a food product that means it should not be sold. Then it might be 'withdrawn' (taken off the shelves) or 'recalled' (when customers are asked to return the product). Sometimes foods have to be withdrawn or recalled if there is a risk to consumers because the allergy labelling is missing or incorrect or if there is any other food allergy risk.
In such situations the Agency will issue an Allergy Alert. It is also possible to subscribe to an email alert system to receive automatic messages whenever Allergy Alerts are issued. Click on 'Get alerts' in the box at the bottom of this page to find more details.
