Calories in red wine
The glass at dinner, weighed like the rest of the table, because alcohol counts too: this page measures, it recommends nothing.
What a real portion weighs
The Anses table gives values per 100 grams, and 100 grams is not a portion anybody serves. Here are the same values, applied to the portions as they turn up. Weights are in grams, the unit the table is built on. For a quick conversion: 1 oz is about 28 g, and 1 lb is about 454 g.
| Portion | Weight | Energy | Protein | Carbs | Fat | Fiber |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| A small glass · 12.5 cl, a standard European pour | 125 g | 95 kcal | 0.2 g | 0 g | 0 g | 0 g |
| A large glass · 15 cl | 150 g | 114 kcal | 0.2 g | 0 g | 0 g | 0 g |
Where these weights come from. Volumes are converted to grams at one gram per milliliter, as for beer: the density of wine is very close to it. The two pours above are European measures; the US standard drink is 5 fl oz, about 148 ml, which sits between the two.

Red wine vs beer
Two evening glasses, two very different volumes for neighboring energies: wine concentrates what beer stretches out.
| Food | Energy | Protein | Carbs | Fat | Fiber |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Red wine | 76 kcal | 0.2 g | 0 g | 0 g | 0 g |
| Beer | 39 kcal | 0.4 g | 3.1 g | 0 g | 0 g |
Weight for weight, red wine: 94% more energy.
What a table of values does not say
- The energy of a wine comes first from its alcohol: the higher the degree, the more the glass weighs in the journal, and residual sugar only follows.
- The bourguignon of the catalog holds a share of it: cooking drives off part of the alcohol, and the table of the dish accounts for that.

What comes after the number
How much to eat in a day
A portion means nothing without the day that holds it. A calorie need is worked out from height, weight, age and activity level, then split into protein, carbohydrate and fat.

An average weight is an estimate. A photo is not.
In Zemiam, a photo of the meal is enough to log the real portion, with the composition of this same table rather than a guessed figure.
Where the values come from
The composition comes from the Anses Ciqual table: Anses. 2025. Table de composition nutritionnelle des aliments Ciqual, published under Licence Ouverte 2.0. The per-100 g values are reproduced without being altered; the per-portion values are those same values multiplied by a weight, and that weight is not an Anses figure.
