Crane Lake - Cabernet Sauvignon


Emily Elizabeth

Recommended Posts

Emily Elizabeth Enthusiast

So since I've been very sick for almost 36 hours now, I've started trying to hunt down the culprit so I can avoid this in the future if at all possible. I tried a new cheap wine called Crane Lake before getting sick. Has anyone had this before? I wanted to call the company, but it doesn't have a number on the bottle and I can't seem to find them online. It just says Crane Lake Cellars, Napa Valley. It was decent wine for the price, but I'll never buy it again unless I know it's gluten free!

The other suspect stuff I had was:

whole foods organic canned garbanzo beans

Safeway cornstarch (usually use Argo)

Safeway cumin (used it before, but maybe not as much as I did this time)

I can't think of anything else that was new to my diet.

Thanks in advance for anything you can offer!

Emily,

I ran across your post about a month ago after having a reaction of my own. I too had a few new items I had added to my diet including the Crane Lake Petite Sirah. I was devastated at the thought that my wine might be the culprit. I had the same problem trying to find and answer about CL online.

However, I happen to be in the industry. So, I contacted the rep. for Crane Lake and asked her to see if she could find out for me. Omitting e-mail addresses and names I am quoting her e-mail and that of Crane Lake.

Rep: " I have a client that loves the Petite Sirah, but she is very allergic to wheat. SHe had a reaction the other day. One of the things she had was the Crane Lake. She does not want to give it up, but if anything - even the barrel sealant would cause a reaction. If we are 100% that there is not wheat she would like to order a case and let her wheat free support group know that this is an approved product. Can you help me with this because I am at a loss."

Crane Lake: " We do not add any wheat products to our wines. TTB is the governmental agency that regulated the wine industry. I looked at their list of authorized treatments. Wheat is not on the list of authorized treatment materials. I hope this helps."

I plan on testing it out again. With cheddar cheese it is great. I'll cross my fingers, and keep you informed if I have a reaction.

"It's 5 O'clock somewhere!" ;)

      Brown Rice Vinegar (organic) from Eden Foods is likely gluten free

      @Charlie1946,  Sorry I sidetracked your thread a bit.  Apologies. Proton pump inhibitors, like Omeprazole, change the pH in our gastrointestinal systems which allows opportunistic microbes to move in and take over.  Have you been checked for SIBO?  There's a significant link between length of Omeprazole use and SIBO.  I had SIBO, thrush (Candida) and lichen planus and other problems while I was on Omeprazole.  I had to stop taking it.  It was a horrible time, so I understand how painful and frustrating it is.   You change your microbiome (the bacteria and microbes living inside you) by changing what you eat.  They eat what you eat.  Change the menu and you get different customers.   I changed my diet.  I cut out dairy because I was reacting to the casein and lactose.  I cut out all processed foods and most carbohydrates. I ate meat and veggies mostly, some fruit like apples and mandarin oranges.  By cutting out all the excess carbohydrates, lactose, and empty carbs in processed gluten-free foods, the opportunistic microbes get starved out.  SIBO bacteria send chemical messages to our brains demanding more carbs, so be prepared for carb cravings, but don't let the microbiome control you!   The skin and digestive system is continuous.  The health of our outside skin reflects the health of our gastrointestinal system.  Essential B vitamins, like Thiamine B 1 and especially Niacin B 3, are needed to repair intestinal damage and keep bad bacteria in check.  Niacin helps improve not only the intestinal tract, but also the skin.  Sebaceous Hyperplasia is linked to being low in Niacin B 3.  Lichen Planus is treated with Niacinamide, a form of Niacin B 3.   Vitamins are chemical compounds that our bodies cannot make.  We must get them from our food.  If our food isn't digested well (low stomach acid from Omeprazole causes poor digestion), then vitamins aren't released well.  Plus there's a layer of SIBO bacteria absorbing our vitamins first between the food we've eaten and our inflamed and damaged villi that may have difficulty absorbing the vitamins.  So, taking vitamin supplements is a way to boost absorption of essential nutrients that will allow the body to fight off the microbes, repair and heal.   Doctors are taught in medical learning institutions funded by pharmaceutical companies.  The importance of nutrition is downplayed and called old fashioned.  Doctors are taught we have plenty to eat, so no one gets nutritional deficiency diseases anymore.  But we do, as people with Celiac disease, with impaired absorption.  Nutritional needs need to be addressed first with us.  Vitamins cannot be patented because they are natural substances.  But pharmaceutical drugs can be.  There's more money to be made selling pharmaceutical drugs than vitamins.   Makes me wonder how much illness could be prevented if people were screened for Celiac disease much earlier in life, instead of after they've been ill and medicated for years.   Talk to your doctor and dietician about supplementing essential vitamins and minerals.   Interesting Reading: The Duration of Proton Pump Inhibitor Therapy and the Risk of Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12250812/#:~:text=The long-term use of,overgrowth dynamics is less clear.

      My sebaceous hyperplasia and thrush disappeared when I stopped all dairy.

      @knitty kitty Thank you so much for all that information! I will be sure to check it out and ask my doctor.  I am just at a loss, I am on my 2nd round of miracle mouthwash and I brush and scrape my tongue and (sorry this is gross) it's still coated in the middle

      Traditional brown rice vinegars are made by fermenting brown rice and water with koji (Kōji 麹). The gluten risk comes from the method of preparing the koji: rice, wheat or barley may be used. Regardless of the starting grain, "koji" typically will be listed as an ingredient, and that term alone does not indicate gluten status. I called Eden Foods regarding their product "Organic Brown Rice Vinegar" (product of Japan) to ask how their product is made. They gave me a clear answer that they >do< use rice and they >do not< use wheat or barley in preparing their koji. FWIW, the product itself does not contain any labeling about gluten, gluten risk, or gluten safety. Based on Eden's statement, I am going to trust that this product is gluten safe and use it.

      Your post nails the practical reality of living well with a celiac diagnosis. The shift from feeling restricted to discovering a new world of cooking—whether through a supportive partner making gluten-free spanakopita and gravy, or learning to cook for yourself—is exactly how many people find their footing. It turns a medical necessity into a chance to build kitchen skills, eat more whole foods, and actually enjoy the process. Your point that the basics—knife skills, food safety, and experimenting with spices—are all you really need is solid, helpful advice. It’s a good reminder that the diagnosis, while a pain, doesn’t have to stop you from eating well or having fun with food.
