Red Wine is one of the worst drinks if you suffer from migraines. It has a very high tyramine level ( the same chemical found in aged cheeses, nuts and some chocolate). Different grapes in the wines have higher tannin levels and should be avoided at all costs if you are a sufferer. Many people believe that high tyramine levels have less to do with grape variety than with the fermentation process. Questionable fermentation techniques can introduce excessive tyramine amounts to wine and even beer. There is some lack of agreement in the scientific and medical communities regarding the connection between tyramine and migraine. See the link.
