Tag: 4 oz wine

According to the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism, a standard glass of wine is five ounces at 12% alcohol by volume (ABV), but the actual alcohol content in a 4 ounce glass of wine can vary significantly depending on the specific wine's ABV. This means a smaller pour does not guarantee less alcohol, as the strength of the wine is the key factor.

A 4-ounce glass of red wine typically contains around 100 calories, but this can fluctuate depending on the wine's alcohol and sugar content. The exact calorie count varies significantly across different types of wine, from a lighter white to a full-bodied red or a dessert wine. Understanding these factors is key for anyone watching their caloric intake.
