Hey guys and gals, thanks again for all your fab input. After some investigating I've learned that she's cutting back on the wine for calorie purposes and now tends to drink gin on a night out. Raspberry flavour is her favourite so I think a bottle of that will go down nicely, and she'll know I went to the effort of finding out what her current favourite preference of drink is.

Chin-chin!

Calorie wise glass for glass they are about the same around 150 calories.

I think the idea is that consumption wise, she'll be drinking less gin compared to wine per occasion, thus less calories. You don't generally have gin by the glass/bottle like you would wine.
