PureWine Information

Wine Intolerance is a big problem hiding in plain sight! We estimate 36 million U.S. adults 21+ (43% of the wine drinking population) suffer moderate to frequent side effects from drinking wine. The most common side effects from drinking wine are a function of an individual's genetics, age, and lifestyle. The cause of some immediate side effects may not be the alcohol, but rather the histamines and sulfites that are in all red, white, rosé and sparkling wines. PureWine products work by removing the four kinds of histamines and the two kinds of sulfites which trigger some of the common side effects from drinking wine. Importantly, PureWine products work without significantly changing the taste, aromas, or color of wine. PureWine currently markets two products, on for the glass and on for the bottle: • The Wand™ filters a single glass of wine and is available in 5-, 10-, 30- and 90- unit packages. • The Wave™ filters and aerates an entire bottle of wine as you pour. The scientific breakthrough that led to the founding of PureWine in 2016 was discovering how to selectively filter the four types of biogenic amines (including histamine, putrescine, cadaverine, and tyramine) and the two types of sulfites (free and total sulfites) that cause wine headaches and side effects. PureWine Inc. was founded in 2014 by a father and son team, David Meadows, Ph.D and his son Derek. Both father and son suffered from red wine headaches and experienced other side effects such as congestion and skin flush from both red and white wine. Together, David and Derek spent three years in the laboratory looking for a solution to their own experiences. Our team members are all wine lovers and we are passionately committed to helping more people enjoy the unique pleasure of wine.
