K Sorbate is a food preservative of some kind. That's about all I know, you might Google to find the real answer.
Of course it probably is harmful, but it is put in a lot of food products these days, just read the labels before eating.

Potassium sorbate is a preservative used in many foods and drinks. It is not harmful if used in proper quantities, it is a very bitter tasting chemical so I doubt you would consume anything that had a harmful amount of it in it.

Potassium Sorbate is one of many preservatives they use in wine.
Only dangerous if you are allergic to it. If you had wine before and had no reaction...you're ok.
BUT...if you're still concerned about sulphates...try organic wines. They are good quality, but the shelf life is a lot shorter
