My guess would be the toxic fusel oils that are more present in cheap wines than in pricier, well-made ones. Grape seeds contain these bitter oils, which can cause headaches, flushing, etc, and cheaper wines are more likely pressed very thoroughly, such that the oils are extracted from the seeds. Higher end wines are pressed more gently, or may just be free run juice, and contain far less of them.
