Blogger to have all your questions answered
Whenever I decide to
go on a diet, I immediately
miss chocolate and wine
before I start. With the
popular low carb/low
sugar diets, is there a way
to include wine and not be
cheating? Yes!
The key is to pick
dry wines that are the
lowest in both carbs and
sugar. Some wineries
produce low sugar wines
with less than 1 gram
of sugar. Sounds like
ordering a diet soda …
when I really want the ice
cream sundae.
There is hope. Fit Vine
and Dry Farms Wines are
virtually void of sugar in
a 5-ounce serving. (No
you can’t drink the whole
bottle.)
Other good choices low in sugar and carbs are:
• Sauvignon Blanc 3 g carbs per serving
• Merlot 3.7 g carbs per serving
• Champagne 2 g carbs per serving
• Pinot Noir 3.4 g per serving
• Pinot Grigio 3 g per serving
When shopping, avoid dessert wines because, well ...
they are “dessert” and with dessert comes sugar and carbs.
Port and ice wine, along with other wines labeled dolce,
demi-sec and semi-sec, are in the dessert family and – along
with it – are also higher in sugar and carbs.
Hope is on the label. When it comes to dry wines, look
for descriptions such as brut, dry or extra dry to tip you
off about lower sugar and carb choices.
On our quest to a thinner and healthier lifestyle …
fellow wine enthusiasts, we can keep wine on the menu!
Just be specific in your choice! 561 229 0253
