Wine is gluten free when first made if precautions were taken;
however, if the wine is aged in wooden barrels then chances are it
will become contaminated with gluten. A gluten based substance is used
between the boards in order to ensure a good seal. This is leeched
into the wine and makes it not gluten free.
White wine can also be contaminated with gluten, I have no idea how
but I do know that I have had white wine and if had gluten in it. The
only kind of wine I could ever stand was a pinot grigio but in limited
amounts.
