> was surprised to learn that some of the highest concentrations of phthalates can be found in alcoholic beverages in glass bottles

Well, this fun fact ruined my day. Alcohol is itself an endocrine disruptor already. I just want to be able to poison myself with wine without being poisoned from the epoxies used in storage tanks or the hoses during bottling!

Anyone got a list of "clean" wineries that aren't selling contaminated product?

According to the paper, the ratio in glass bottled wines compared to soda, fruit juices, tea is small, so at least that’s something.
