7. How Is Sake Compared To Wine?

Wine and sake are both fermented alcohols with an alcohol percentage of around 15 percent, so in a way, they're a bit similar.

One difference is in their sweetness. Contrary to what many people believe, Japanese sake is sweeter than wine. And as such, sake also has more calories than wine. A glass of sake of 100 grams contains 103 calories whereas wine has about 83 calories for the same amount.
