Does white wine have more purines than red?

White wine generally contains fewer purines than red wine. Purines are compounds that can lead to the production of uric acid, which is relevant for individuals concerned about gout or related conditions. While both types of wine have low purine levels compared to other Alcoholic Beverages, red wine tends to have slightly higher purine content due to its production process and grape skins. Therefore, if purine intake is a concern, white wine may be a better choice.
