Is it possible to test the relative alcohol content of different wines by setting them on fire?!


Question: No, the highest a wine genreally gets is around 18% alcohol by content (usually a Zinfadel). Wine is fermented and NOT distilled, so thus the generation of alcohol maxes out below 20%. Proof actually comes from the test of adding gunpowder to alcohol and when it eventually lights, it shows "proof" of a high alcohol content.

Wine won't catch fire.

Just read the bottle or drink it.

No sense in burning the house down
when you could have been drinking wine in the hot tub.
