Wine, white, dry

Dry white wine is an alcoholic drink made by fermenting grape juice. It mainly provides energy from alcohol, with a small amount of carbohydrate and little protein or fat. Per 100ml, it contains 309 kJ of energy, 10g of alcohol and 0.6g of sugars.

Alcohol contributes to energy intake even when a drink contains little sugar or no fat. The term dry describes the wine’s low sugar content; it does not mean that the drink is low in alcohol or free from alcohol-related risks. Alcohol can affect judgement and coordination.
