are you talking about a balsamic glaze or dressing rather than striaght balsamic or white wine vinegar? the carb content of all the vinegars is pretty low (balsamic being the highest at around 3g per tablespoon, the rest are traces) so it is surprising that you would get a noticeable effect. also, the term wine vinegar is quite misleading as all the alcohol is distilled off in it's preparation so you are just left with the flavour, hence v low carb.
