What changes the calories
- Pour size matters most, since home and restaurant glasses are often filled well beyond 5 fl oz.
- Wines with a higher alcohol content generally have more calories, because alcohol is the main calorie source.
- Sweeter styles such as dessert or late-harvest wines keep more residual sugar, which adds calories compared with dry wines.
- Mixing wine into spritzers or sangria changes the total, with soda water adding nothing and juice or sweet mixers adding calories.
Tips for logging it accurately
- Measure a 5 fl oz pour once in your usual glass so you know what a standard serving looks like.
- Log the actual volume you drank, using the 1 fl oz serving to add up larger or smaller pours.
- In BerryFit, log any mixers like juice or soda separately so the full drink is counted.
