If you're drinking a white wine, check the bottle for a "residual sugar %". You'll usually find it in rieslings, white zins, gewurztraminers, and dessert wines. If it's there, then there's more carbs.

I haven't figured out the math for residual sugar -> carbs, but maybe someone else out there has.
