how many drinks are in a 750ml bottle of wine

[DiAxel]

Ah, the eternal question that truly depends on your definition of "a drink" and, let's be honest, your mood. According to the professionals, a standard 750ml bottle of wine holds about 25 ounces of liquid joy.

If you're pouring with the precision of a restaurant sommelier, you can expect to get about five glasses from that bottle. This is based on a standard 5-ounce pour. Of course, if you're enjoying a wine with a higher alcohol content, a more responsible establishment might serve you a slightly smaller 4-ounce pour, which magically increases the number of servings.

However, let's talk about the real world: your house. At home, where we are not in the business of selling wine but rather in the noble pursuit of enjoying it, the measurements can get a bit more generous. In that case, a bottle might contain four, three, or even two "drinks." It all comes down to the optimism of the person holding the bottle.
