Hello,
Without an exam, I can only give general information cannot say in your particular case, but generally, allergic reactions would have to be all over. On the other hand, wine often causes non-allergic localized blush/flush.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
