Try a variety of European wines.  Most of the European winemakers aren't
directly adding sulfites after fermentation, although they are still
sulfur-smoking barrels which produces a similar effect.  You might especially
try some of the German whites.

Definitely try plain grape juice in a couple varieties.

You might also try taking a lick of some sodium sulfite and see if that
brings the thing on.  Ask your local homebrewing store for "campden tablets."
Used to be you could get it at a camera store too, but these days nobody
mixes developers from reagents any more.
