Sherry, medium

Medium sherry is a fortified wine with some sweetness. The figures here describe the drink as sold, rather than sherry used as an ingredient in cooking. Per 100ml, it provides 482 kJ of energy, 13g of alcohol and 5.9g of carbohydrate, all of which is sugar. Its energy comes mainly from alcohol, with a smaller contribution from sugar.

Alcohol provides energy but is not an essential nutrient. It can impair judgement and coordination, and drinking alcohol carries health risks. The alcohol and sugar content are relevant when considering energy intake, even though sherry contains no fat. Full nutritional figures are provided in the tables below.
