LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) Brown-Forman has squeezed carbs out of its newest wines. Even the brand names reinforce the carbohydrate-counting craze. The wine and spirits maker expects to make a splash with its low-carb vintages, which will reach shelves nationally starting around Memorial Day. The wines are named after the grams of carbohydrates in a 5-ounce glass. One brand is called One.6 Chardonnay; the other is One.9 Merlot. Normally, a 5-ounce glass of wine has 3 to 6 grams of carbs, the company said. The low-carb brands have the same alcohol content as other wines.
