Question by Jon G: How much sugar is there in blossom hill red wine?
I jsut went to a wine demonstartion today where the host told us that there were about 28 grams of sugar in Blossom Hill wine bit was unsure which one that referred to.
So I would like to know what the sugar content of Blossom Hill red wine is, particularly te Californian red.
Thanks

Best answer:

Answer by Corvato
what most people consider sugar, is sucrose, which is standard table sugar

wine doesn’t actually have any sucrose in most cases, since it uses the natural fructose in the grapes.

as for carbohydrates, which is in both fructose & sucrose

unsure if Blossom Hill is considered dry or sweet, but it varies from 1g a serving, 2-3.

Yes there is, and currently, the cellars in the Houses of Parliament carry aproximately 2 million pounds worth of wine, vintage and non vintage, for the exclusive use of the MPs in the private bars, where, incidently, they are allowed to smoke..unlike the rest of the population who, if they want a drink in a bar, and a smoke..have to go outside..so..do as I say, not as I do is the MP`s code !!..A bit like if you fiddle your expenses you get fired, if they do it..it`s a mathematical oversight,

Q&A: Is it legal to take wine on a train in India?

Question by John: Is it legal to take wine on a train in India?
I hear it is illegal to transport wine across state borders, so if I’m carrying a single bottle of wine across the Karnataka border by passenger train, to gift my relative, will it be a problem if the authorities find it during any routine luggage checks?
Are these restrictions on purely alcoholic wines only? What if I’m carrying ginger wine (home-made or purchased)?
Is there a difference in carrying unopened wine and an opened bottle?
Not planning to drink while in the train anyway.

Best answer:

Answer by ?
who cares. anything is legal over there
