Keto wines

Keto Wine

Sugar free wine that fits a ketogenic diet, at full strength. Every bottle in this collection is confirmed at 0g of residual sugar per 125ml, checked with the producer rather than estimated from the style, with the figures printed on each product page.

Dry wine is one of the few alcoholic drinks that works properly on keto. When a wine ferments all the way through, the yeast converts the grape sugar into alcohol and leaves almost nothing behind, so a glass contributes between 0 and 1.5g of carbohydrate. The problem is that most supermarket wine isn't fully dry, and nothing on the label tells you.

Can you drink wine on keto?

Yes, with the right bottles. Most keto diets allow 20 to 50g of carbohydrate a day, and a dry wine barely registers against that. An off-dry white or a commercial rosé can carry 4 to 9g a glass, which is a different proposition entirely.

Alcohol itself contains no carbohydrate, so a sugar free wine won't raise your blood glucose or push you out of ketosis. It will pause fat metabolism while your liver processes it, which is worth knowing if results matter as much as staying in ketosis does.

What's in the collection

Every bottle is full strength. Nothing here is dealcoholised, watered down or sweetened back up.

• Dry whites. Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Grigio and unoaked Chardonnay, the driest styles and generally the lightest.
• Dry reds. Old World classics including Rioja, Chianti and Bordeaux blends, dry by tradition rather than by accident.
• Dry rosé. Provence-style rather than the off-dry pink that fills supermarket shelves.
• Brut Nature sparkling. Cava and Champagne with no sugar added after fermentation, the driest classification there is.

Use the calorie and ABV filters to narrow it down. Since alcohol drives most of the calorie count rather than sugar, the lightest wines here are also the lowest in alcohol.

Sugar free, low carb, low alcohol: not the same thing

Three terms that get used interchangeably and shouldn't be.

Sugar free wine has fermented to dryness, so the residual sugar is 0g. That's what makes it low carb, since residual sugar is the main carbohydrate in wine.

Low alcohol wine has had its strength reduced, and producers frequently add sugar back afterwards to restore the body and flavour lost along the way. That can leave it higher in carbohydrate than the full-strength version, not lower.

Low calorie wine is usually just lower in alcohol, since alcohol carries 7 calories per gram against 4 for carbohydrate. A sugar free wine at 13.5% will still be more calorific than one at 11%.

Everything in this collection is sugar free and full strength. If calories are the priority rather than carbs, sort by the calorie filter.

What to avoid elsewhere

Dessert wines, port and sherry, Moscato, off-dry Riesling and Gewürztraminer, and anything described as medium or with a noticeably sweet finish.

One that catches almost everybody: Extra Dry Prosecco is sweeter than Brut. The sparkling scale runs Brut Nature, Extra Brut, Brut, Extra Dry, Dry, Demi-Sec from driest to sweetest, so Extra Dry is fourth on that list rather than second.

Frequently asked questions

Can you drink wine on a keto diet?
Yes. Dry wines with 0g of residual sugar contribute 0 to 1.5g of carbohydrate per 125ml glass, well inside a typical 20 to 50g daily allowance. Sweet and off-dry wines do not.

What is sugar free wine?
Wine that has fermented completely, leaving no residual grape sugar. It isn't sweetened, treated or altered afterwards. Every wine in this collection is confirmed at 0g per 125ml serving.

Does wine kick you out of ketosis?
A dry wine won't, because there's no meaningful sugar to raise your blood glucose. Alcohol does pause fat burning while your liver processes it, so ketosis continues but fat metabolism slows temporarily.

How many carbs are in a glass of keto wine?
Typically 0 to 1.5g per 125ml. Residual sugar is the main carbohydrate in wine and every bottle here is confirmed at 0g. The small remainder is glycerol, a natural by-product of fermentation rather than sugar.

Which wine has the lowest carbs?
Brut Nature sparkling, where no sugar is added after fermentation, followed by dry still whites and reds.

Is red or white wine better for keto?
On carbohydrate, neither. Both are low when made dry. Dry reds tend to be higher in alcohol and therefore calories, so whites are usually the lighter choice.

Is prosecco keto friendly?
Brut Prosecco, generally yes. Extra Dry and Dry carry more sugar despite the names. Brut Nature Cava is the driest sparkling option.

Is low alcohol wine better for keto?
Usually not. Cutting the ABV cuts calories, but producers often add sugar back to restore the body lost along the way, which raises the carbohydrate. Every wine here is full strength and dry.

Are your keto wines vegan and gluten free?
Most are. Wine is naturally gluten free, and vegan status depends on the fining agent used to clarify it. Both are confirmed on every product page.

Please drink responsibly. UK guidance is no more than 14 units a week, spread across three or more days, with several drink-free days.
