Champagne Nutrition Benefits and Facts

Nutritional summary

Champagne is a sparkling wine that typically contains fewer calories than many other alcoholic beverages because it is often served in smaller portions and has a lower alcohol-by-volume (ABV) than spirits .
Because it is fermented from grapes, Champagne contains polyphenols (naturally occurring plant compounds), though the concentration is generally lower than in red wines due to the removal of grape skins during production.
Unlike many mixed drinks or cocktails, Champagne contributes energy primarily through ethanol and residual sugars without the addition of fats or complex carbohydrates .
The carbonation in Champagne may affect the rate of alcohol absorption in the body, a physical property unique to sparkling wines compared to still wines.

Interesting fact

The pressure inside a bottle of Champagne is approximately 90 pounds per square inch, which is about three times the pressure in a typical car tire.
