Wine & Spirits Nutrition Guide

Wine & Spirits Nutrition Guide

Enjoying your favorite wines and spirits is even better when you understand what’s in your glass. Whether you’re mindful of calories, carbs, or sugar content, we’re here to help you make informed choices while savoring every sip.

 

Calories in Wine & Spirits

The calorie content of alcoholic beverages varies based on alcohol percentage, sweetness, and serving size. Typically:

Dry wines (red, white, or rosé) contain about 120-130 calories per 5 oz. glass

Sweeter wines (like dessert or fortified wines) can range from 150-200+ calories per serving

Spirits (such as vodka, whiskey, rum, or tequila) have around 90-120 calories per 1.5 oz. pour, with mixers affecting total calories

 

Carbohydrates & Sugar

Dry wines generally have less than 4g of carbs per serving

Sweet wines and flavored spirits can contain higher sugar and carb content

Pure spirits (vodka, gin, tequila) have zero carbs, making them a popular low-carb choice when consumed without sugary mixers

 

Low-Calorie & Low-Sugar Options

Looking for lighter options? Try:

Brut or Extra Brut Sparkling Wines – naturally lower in sugar

Dry Red or White Wines – fewer residual sugars than sweeter varieties

Straight Spirits or Low-Calorie Mixers – soda water, fresh citrus, or light tonics

 

Moderation & Enjoyment

While alcohol can be part of a balanced lifestyle, moderation is key. The recommended serving sizes are 5 oz. for wine and 1.5 oz. for spirits. Staying hydrated and enjoying responsibly ensures the best experience.
