Why Glimmer Wine is the Guilt-Free Sparkling Choice
When you think of celebrating, champagne is often the first drink that comes to mind. However, did you know that the majority of champagnes on the market get approximately 94% of their calories from alcohol? For those looking to celebrate without the guilt—or the alcohol—Glimmer Wine offers a refreshing alternative.
The Caloric Impact of Alcohol in Champagne
Calories are units of energy from the food and drinks we consume, and calories in wine come from both the residual sugar and the alcohol. Logic follows that the lower the sugar, the lower the calories - but the same can be said for alcohol, lower alcohol means lower calories! A standard glass of champagne can pack around 90-100 calories, and a shocking 94% of these calories are derived from alcohol alone. Alcohol contributes 7 calories per gram, which quickly adds up, especially in alcoholic beverages.
Glimmer Wine: A Sparkling Option That Redefines Guilt-Free
Glimmer Wine, our premium de-alcoholized sparkling wine, changes the game entirely. Without alcohol, the calorie count in Glimmer Wine is substantially lower. While traditional champagne may have up to 100 calories per glass due to alcohol, Glimmer Wine offers a light, refreshing alternative with just a fraction of those calories, so you can sip and savour without worrying about excess calorie intake.
A Comparison Breakdown
Using a typical champagne as an example:
Total calories per 5oz glass: ~100 calories
Calories from alcohol: ~95
With Glimmer Wine:
Total calories per 5oz glass: 22.7
Calories from alcohol: 3.9
Glimmer Wine’s de-alcoholized blend is crafted to maintain the rich, full flavours you love without the extra calories from alcohol.
