    Alcohol Volume In Wine

    Yes that is quite a fair bit. It does depend on your body size, weight and height on how you feel but you will be definitely over the legal limit. For a female it is usually 1 standard drinks within the first hour of drinking and then one standard drink for each hour after that and never more than 4 per day, as for a male it is 2 standard drinks within the first hour and one standard drink each hour after that and never more than 6 per day. A standard glass of wine is 100mL for 11.5% wine as for a whole bottle which is 750mL in volume is 7.5 standard drinks. So working with all that gibberish you have had 3.5 more standard drinks than the most recommended limit. At a guess your B.A.C. will be around 0.1 - 0.15%? ALSO REMEMBER, nothing will make the alcohol leave your system faster, food may make you feel less intoxicated but the recommended standard drink limits should be followed to stay under the legal limit. Other than that if you have no more drinks from now you should be able to drive home in about 8 hours :)

    12% is generally the standard for red wine. If I'm doing my math right, 1 750ml bottle of wine = 6 pack of Guinness. However, wine stays with you more than beer. So yes, that is a lot.

    Yes. A bottle of wine contains four large drinks, suitable for an entire evening for two people.

    Be careful. Do not cultivate a habit that will cause you regret.

    750 ml X .12 = 90 ml alcohol or 180 ml of 100 proof vodka/whiskey.

    That's almost 6 oz. of hard liquor. If you consider doing six oz. of high proof booze a lot, yeah, it is. How much time was your drinking spread over; 1 hour or 8 hours?

    Seems that you should research the consequences before doing such things.

    I have drunk more than that but hangovers are not fun. Think before you drink!
