Certified sommelier & author of the blog, "The Glamorous Gourmet," Stephanie Miskew, shares some tips for selecting waistline-friendly wines.

Here’s three of her choices:
   
No. 1 Sparkling Wines (100-125 calories per 5 oz. glass) - Champagne, Cava, Prosecco look for "Brut," "Brut Nature" or "Brut Zero" on the label
   
No. 2 White Wines (115-145 calories per 5 oz. glass) - lighter white wines such as Pinot Grigio, Albariño & Sauvignon Blanc are lowest in calories
   
No. 3 Red Wines (130-170 calories per 5 oz. glass) - lighter red wines such as Pinot Noir, Barbera & Tempranillo are lowest in calories
