Sugar-Free Wine?

Woo hoo! Alright, here is the scoop. No calories, no carbs, yet still delicious. Last Saturday in Indiana, Chateau Thomas Winery revealed their new wine called Slender -- quite the fitting name! Although its a standard wine in most ways it is sweetened with erythritol, which is somewhat like Splenda in that it brings flavor without costly calories. Although it only retails for $10, which is obviously not top-shelf enough to compete with our usual wine highlights, a wine that brings enjoyment without the pounds is certainly worth celebrating.

Horseshit. If it has alcohol, it has carbs.

I just bought a bottle of the Slender Blush. Not bad! But, with 12% alcohol....there has to be carbs and calories. Alcohol raises blood sugar. This is slight of hand advertising. Diabetics beware!
