I occasionally get blinding headaches from 1/2 glass of wine whereas other times I can drink a bottle without the same problems.

I narrowed it down to the additives and generally will only drink LOCAL wines.
Sulphite content is the key.

Wine that is shipped 1/2 way across the globe has generally a higher sulphite content to preserve it than that bottled at source..
