Low-calorie wines are finding their ways to shelves everywhere

With around 20% of Americans on a diet, low-calorie wine brands are booming in the US. Brands include Skinnygirl, The Skinny Vine, White Lie and others. Little do most dieters know, however, the calorie savings in these wines aren’t particularly significant, at about 12-17 calories per glass. In Europe, however, wines lower than 5.5% alcohol are subject to lower taxes, which translates into lower prices for consumers.
