    Wine and Carbs

    The truth of the matter is that wine contains really no carbs at all, and the calories all come from the alcohol.

    The USDA lists the carbs for a 4 oz glass of wine at 0.8 grams for white wine to 1.8 grams for red wine - pretty minuscle and much less than a glass of beer, which can exceed 15 grams per 12 oz glass.

    Also, carbs and sugar generally raise your blood sugar level while alcohol tends to lower it.
