The Truth About Red Wine And Your Health Case in point: A wine could taste dry even if it has high sugar content (up to nine grams per liter) if it’s also acidic. Here’s a breakdown of wine types and how much sugar they contain: Dry: 4 grams per liter, so it’s not sweet. Medium dry: 4-12 grams of sugar per liter -- or about 0.5 to 2 grams per glass.Sweet: More than 45 grams of sugar per liter -- or about 6 grams per glass or more.
