Alcohol Content In Wine

The standard level of alcohol in a wine usually falls somewhere between 11.5-13%, depending on the grape, region, vintage and producer. Just as anywhere else, though, the wine industry sees trends come and go. A recent trend in winemaking is producing a higher-alcohol wine, particularly from California. Over the last two decades or so, the number of wines produced with an alcohol level higher than 14% (even up to 17%) has increased. Legally, anything over 14% alcohol is considered a “dessert wine,” and is taxed as such, but that’s not what these wines are. You can now easily find a California Zinfandel or even a Pinot Noir coming in at 15 or 16% alcohol.

Wine gets its alcohol from the grapes: the more a grape ripens, the more sugar is in the fruit – sugar that later ferments into alcohol. Some grape varieties have more sugar to begin with – like a Zinfandel vs. Pinot Noir, for example. Grapes are typically harvested at a specific time, to ensure optimal ripeness.
