Curious, what type of experiments? Did you use a blood
glucose monitor? I've been drinking dry red wine and
cider regularly during 3 of my 4+ years of paleo
eating and have noticed the same thing. No sugar
crashes, acne, increased triglycerides, etc.. My
first year on paleo my one cheat food was beer. As
soon as I dropped beer and switched to wine and an
occasional cider I lost 10 pounds fast, increased my
HDL from 59 to 70 and saw my LDL drop 18 points.
Cheers!
Mark
