                                According to the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism, a standard glass of wine is five ounces at 12% alcohol by volume (ABV), but the actual alcohol content in a 4 ounce glass of wine can vary significantly depending on the specific wine's ABV. This means a smaller pour does not guarantee less alcohol, as the strength of the wine is the key factor.
