I heard her say that it took 10 years to write the book, published in 2001, so maybe when she penned those lines, high alcohol was not the issue it is today.

I'm reading on page 76 of Karen MacNeil's Wine Bible that "wines with a small touch of sweetness, such as some rieslings, may have an additional 5 - 10 calories."

Wow. I used to sell imported jellies (not my fondest memory) and all we talked about was what made a good jelly and that was when a company allowed the jelly or jam or whatever to bind using it's own natural pectin. The mass produced stuff has added pectin. Knowing that pectin is a binding agent I kind of did a double take when I read that it was an element in wine. And not only that but along with alcohol it acts as a appetite suppressant. Now that is something worth dissecting. Cool interview! P.S. Ah, life before wine. pounding the pavement of NYC selling imported chutney. I am so glad I found the juice! EvWg Pectin?! Wow.

Really interesting that it's the added alcohol that adds sugar. I always felt guilty ordering Moscato -- or in my case, Brachatto d'Asti which also has LOTS of residual sugar. Thanks for doing the interview. Great article! Really interesting that it’s the added alcohol that adds sugar.

NY grapes don't get to much sun and heat, so our wines are lower in alcohol. I'm putting myself on the Finger Lakes Champagne diet this weekend. Kathleen Yes.

The Finger Lakes Diet?!? Hiker - sounds like you are running in calorie balance! Kathleen - A new target audience for the wines of the region–dieters? The Finger Lakes Diet?!?
