Wine Information

Which has more calories red or white wine?

Public Comments

1. Calories in wine comes from residual sugar and alcohol. It is not a matter of the color. Red wine tends to have less sugar, but higher alcohol. (because that sugar has been converted to alcohol) So look for a dry wine with lower alcohol.
2. Essentially they're the same. Here's a couple examples: Merlot (red, 95), Beaujolais (red, 95), Riesling (white, 90), Blanc (white, 80). Whites trend a little lower, but hardly worth planning a diet around.
