Loblaw is voluntarily recalling some of its President's Choice White Grape Juice.

The company says some 1.36 litre bottles of the juice could contain undeclared sulphites, which could pose a risk to those with sensitivities or allergies.

The affected product was sold nationally at Loblaw stores and has a best before date of April 17, 2014.

Loblaw says it's pulled the remaining bottles from its shelves.

No customer complaints or incidents have been reported.

Loblaw says the source of the issue has been determined and corrected.

You can return affected product to any Loblaw store for a full refund, with or without a receipt.
