It is a very personal decision @Erika888 - I enjoy a wine or 2 with my evening meals and would never tell anyone not to. Moderation is the key, I think.
I used to actually make my own fruit wine 30 years ago & I know they had no added sulphites in them .... and boy, they were high level alcohol as I wouldn't bottle them til they had finished fermenting!! They were VERY tasty tho - and they also never gave me a hangover!
Organic wines (no added sulphites) are gaining in popularity, specially those with allergies. (Sometimes sulphite is added to stop the fermenting process & also prevent wine from going 'off'.) It appears sulphite can be naturally occurring during fermentation - so in wines whether added or not.
White wines usually have less than red wines.
There are quite a few brands:
