Brief Answer:
Considerations
Detailed Answer:
hello and thanks for sending the question.
I suspect that you might be sensitive to the components of the wine what you have consumed. One other possibility is that you might be mildly dehydrated. This can sometimes cause an increase in your pulse.
I would recommend that you drink a couple glasses of water and observe for improvement of your symptoms.
If your pulse remains elevated you probably should see your doctor for a physical exam.
