Refraction is merely one of several possible boundary behaviors by which a light wave could behave when it encounters a new medium or an obstacle in its path. The transmission of light across a boundary between two media is accompanied by a change in both the speed and wavelength of the wave. The light wave not only changes directions at the boundary, it also speeds up or slows down and transforms into a wave with a larger or a shorter wavelength.
Each varietal of red wine has a slightly different calorie content. According to the USDA, an average red table wine contains 125 calories for every 5 fl oz, or approximately 625 calories in a bottle. Syrah, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon have 122 calories in 5 fl oz, or 610 calories per bottle. A Pinot Noir has slightly fewer calories -- 121 calories in 5 fl oz, or 605 calories per bottle.
A 5-ounce pour of semisweet German Riesling can reach 14 grams of sugar, which adds up to 43 calories just from sugar. To keep the calorie count low from both sugar and alcohol in a glass of wine, stick with dry wines.Here are some of my favorites: n White: sauvignon blanc, Italian pinot grigio, viognier, and chardonnay. â¢ Red: cabernet sauvignon, cabernet franc, pinot noir and syrah.â Christine Lehmann, The Washington Post.o keep the calorie count low from both sugar and alcohol in a glass of wine, stick with dry wines.
