Wine additives in the news

Chris Shanahan, wine columnist for the Canberra Times, wrote an article 'Wine additives play a part' which appeared yesterday. It can be read online here. While the subtitle was 'Why you don't have to be alarmed about the additives in your wine', some of the comments so far are from people who are unnecessarily alarmed. I understand that additives in food can be emotive, but that is exactly why this blog exists – so that you can know what the additives are for and whether they are worth being alarmed about or not.
