One 5-ounce pour of popular Stella Rosa flavors lands around 100 to 110 calories, mostly from sugar and alcohol, not protein or fat.

Bold Sweet
Stella Rosa is sweet, lightly bubbly, and lower in alcohol than a dry cabernet. That style matters for calorie math. Energy in the glass mainly comes from leftover grape sugar plus alcohol. The sugar side is what stands out.
Calorie Count In Stella Rosa Wine Per 5-Ounce Pour
A standard 5-ounce pour of flavors like Black, Rosso, Berry, or Peach lands near 100 to 110 calories. The Stella Rosa Black label lists 110 calories per 5 fl oz serving, with 16 grams of carbs (all sugar) and 0 grams of fat or protein. Peach and Berry sit closer to 100 calories and about 14 grams of sugar in the same pour.
| Stella Rosa Flavor | Calories (5 Oz) | Sugar (5 Oz) |
|---|---|---|
| Peach / Berry | ~100 kcal | ~14 g sugar |
| Rosso / Red Blend | ~110 kcal | ~16 g sugar |
| Black | ~110 kcal | ~16 g sugar |
Those rows use the same 5-ounce pour health agencies call “one drink.” Federal guidance treats 5 ounces of wine as a standard drink because that pour usually lands near 14 grams of pure ethanol.
That single glass won’t wreck the day, but it still counts. Many people log drinks next to their daily calorie intake plan early, not after dinner, so late-night totals don’t feel like a shock.
Why Stella Rosa Wines Land Around 100–110 Calories
Alcohol is dense. One gram of ethanol gives about 7 calories, close to fat gram for gram. Public health sources call those “empty” calories, because alcohol adds energy without protein, fiber, or micronutrients.
Dry table reds often sit around 12%–14% alcohol by volume (ABV). Stella Rosa usually lands closer to 5%–7% ABV. Less ethanol per ounce means fewer alcohol calories per ounce. To hold sweetness, fermentation stops sooner or grape must gets blended back in. That leaves sugar in the final pour. Labels for Rosso, Black, Berry, and Peach show 14–16 grams of carbs in 5 ounces, almost all sugar.
How That Compares With Drier Wine
A 5-ounce glass of generic dry red wine often lands near 120–125 calories with almost no sugar. Stella Rosa sits a touch lower in calories per 5 ounces (100–110 instead of ~125) but carries way more sugar per sip.
Why care about sugar? CDC guidance asks adults to cap added sugar at under 10% of daily calories. On a 2,000-calorie day, that’s no more than 200 calories from added sugar, or about 12 teaspoons total. One 5-ounce Stella Rosa pour lands around 16 grams of sugar, just under 4 teaspoons.
Public health pages explain the calorie stack: alcohol brings 7 calories per gram, and sweet drinks tack sugar on top. You can see that laid out in NHS guidance on calories in alcohol and in CDC notes on added sugar guidance.
How Pour Size Changes Your Intake
The label serving line says “5 fl oz.” A home pour often runs bigger. A wide glass can hit 8 ounces without looking full, and that shifts calories and alcohol units fast.
Pour Size Math
The table below scales the same Stella Rosa data to common pour sizes. The “mid” number here matches Rosso or Black at 110 calories and 16 grams of sugar per 5 ounces.
| Pour Size | Calories (Rosso / Black) | Sugar (Rosso / Black) |
|---|---|---|
| 5 fl oz (standard glass) | 110 kcal | 16 g sugar |
| 8 fl oz (heavier pour) | ~176 kcal | ~26 g sugar |
| 750 ml bottle (~25 fl oz) | ~550 kcal | ~80 g sugar |
An 8-ounce sweet pour can land near 176 calories and 26 grams of sugar in one glass. A full 750 ml bottle holds about five 5-ounce pours, so you’re talking roughly 550 calories and around 80 grams of sugar if the bottle goes down.
CDC pages also remind people that even wine counts as alcohol exposure, and the current line for moderate intake lands at one drink per day for women and two for men. In that math, one drink means a 5-ounce wine pour.
Sugar, Alcohol Percentage, And Sweet Taste
Why does this wine taste almost like soda? Soft bubbles hit first. Then ripe fruit, which comes from grape must and natural flavor held in the blend. Retail panels for Rosso, Berry, Peach, and Black all show 14–16 grams of carbs in 5 ounces, with fat 0 grams, protein 0 grams, sodium near 0 milligrams, and a small bump of potassium in some bottles.
Low ABV Doesn’t Mean Free Pass
Stella Rosa sits around 5%–7% ABV, and it’s still alcohol. CDC pages link any drinking, including wine, with higher cancer risk.
Practical Tips Before You Pour
These quick moves keep this sweet bubbly in the “treat” lane, not an everyday calorie dump:
- Mark a real 5-ounce line. Fill a liquid measuring cup to 5 ounces, pour it into your glass, and note the height. That’s one serving.
- Chill and sip slow. A colder pour tends to slow sip speed, so refills don’t sneak in.
- Alternate with plain seltzer. Half wine, half seltzer over ice keeps flavor but drags calorie speed down.
- Swap dessert instead of stacking dessert. If one glass already brings ~16 grams of sugar, skip the frosted cupcake that night or split it.
- Watch “bottle creep.” Killing the whole 750 ml bottle lands near 550 calories and ~80 grams of sugar, closer to a milkshake than a tiny nightcap.
