The ketogenic diet is the high-fat, moderate-protein, low-carb eating plan that keeps wine on the menu (in moderation, of course). Yep, it's basically the diet of our dreams.
But not all wines are keto-friendly. After all, alcohol is made from sugar, and sugar is a carb. Ideally, a keto wine will have zero residual sugar and less than 13.5% ABV.
When it comes to finding a wine that fits within the keto diet, your safest bet is to look for dry wines, which mostly means they'll have less sugar. Here, 10 wines that are keto-approved.
