I don't drink that often but when I do, I will have 1-3 glasses. The most I'll usually have is a bottle (4 glasses), because then I will be in a world of hurt the next day.
What's the most wine you'll drink in an evening?

I usually cap out at 2 glasses... 3 if I had a really good meal.
Once, I had TWO BOTTLES and I was shitfaced. I blew a .22 and acted out all of the cards in my Cranium game. And then I was hungover for 2 days after... never again.

Depends on the night! HA! I'm not drinking NOW, but sometimes I would have a glass or two. I'm not going to lie, there have been some nights I've had a bottle more more, but it doesn't happen that much. There are only 4 glasses to a standard bottle.

Late last summer DH and I split 2 bottles of wine, with him having MAYBE 2 glasses and me guzzling the rest like the wino I am (when I'm not KU'd, of course). I was sick before we even went to bed...DH had to carry me out of the bathroom where I'd passed out on the floor with my head on the toilet, and I was in a world of pain the next day, made worse because we had a lunch date with his parents.
Please note I almost never drink that much, it was just a very very very good wine (for being a cheap white), I didn't want to stop drinking it, and it was a day or two after my miscarriage.
I usually stick to 2 glasses a night, with 3 generally being my max. I'm nice and buzzing and relaxed, but not drunk.

@MsMini: I just drank a bottle on my own... can't remember the last time I did that!

Half a bottle. DH and I used to split a bottle over dinner fairly regularly. These days we're big wimps, and I barely ever have more than a glass and a half.

Usually 1 1/2 glasses, i'll max out at 3 unless we're at a party.

I will drink one glass if that's all they have and I feel like drinking wine. I love a good moscoto, though.

Pre-pg, I could easily drink a bottle all by myself, and be perfectly fine the next day. It will be interesting to see what my tollerance is like at the end of this pregnancy!

Usually two glasses. But there has been a night or two where I've finished a bottle alone. When you find a really good wine and you have good company sometimes you just don't want to stop!!
@MsLipGloss: I'm also really interested to see how I feel about booze and how I handle it once this nugget gets here. I'm almost 21 weeks and my whole pregnancy I haven't missed alcohol one bit. The thought of taking even a sip makes me sick to my stomach.

Depends on the night, mostly I would say a couple glasses. But some nights, a bottle. I usually with people that all drink red and I don't. If we are at a friends house for dinner and end up being there 5 or 6 hours, I can finish a bottle no issue. Mostly cause otherwise it would go to waste, right?? But I always make sure to drink lots of water, otherwise the headache is horrible the next day.

Usually 2 glasses. It has been a really long time since I've had a bottle. Lordy, that would be a hangover.

Probably top out at 3 - but normally my husband and I just end up splitting a bottle. Although I'm sure when I can drink again, my tolerance will be very low, so a half glass will be plenty!

At the end of our honeymoon in Ireland, when we were renting a cottage for a week, DH and I were sharing a bottle almost every night in front of the fire. Good times.
I tried drinking a few cups of caffeinated tea recently, while pregnant, and I felt drunk! I have a feeling my alcohol tolerance is going to be much lower by the time baby arrives...

Pre pregs, I could finish a bottle plus a glass by myself and depending on what I ate or how much water I drank, would be OK in the morning. Now, not so sure. I have really missed wine this pregnancy though!

I'm a 2-glass girl. If I have more than 2, I get a serious red wine headache.

On a week night I would have a glass, maybe two to relax or with dinner. On a weekend when I had no plans I might finish off a bottle, anything over that gives me a killer headache and no matter how great it taste is not worth a wine hangover...they are the worst!

On a regular ol' weeknight? 2 glasses. On a weekend or when I know I don't have anything to wake up for, i'll double that. I'm a white wine gal, and it doesn't take much lol

I don't drink very often, so I have a really low tolerance. Two glasses means I'm pretty sloshed, three glasses means people need to prepare for me to get totally inappropriate.

1-1 1/2.....I looove wine but I have never had enough to get drunk off of it. Mainly because I'm allergic to it. DH won't let me have more than 2 glasses, because my allergic reactions tend to get kind of bad.

Pre-preg, I would have 2 glasses a night after work/cooking/eating dinner...On a weekend? I could easily pound a bottle by myself - no hangover. That quote from Ramona on RHNY "My blood type is pinot grigio!" is my line:) Except it's Malbec-lol.
I actually thought, due to my Wino-ism, that I would definitely be having a glass of wine here and there during my pregnancy, but I have surprised myself and have had none because I am way too chicken:)

Before baby:
I would drink 2-3 glasses with dinner (if we're at home). I have been known to blow through a bottle+ and have a massive hangover for it in the morning.

I'd say 1-2 glasses with dinner about 3x a week. Our weekly friend get together usually meant about 4 (if we were at our house), and I could kill a bottle on a weekend. Generally not much more than that, though.

Before baby, I would drink a glass or two with dinner during the week but I would go through a bottle easily if I drank on the weekend. Now, since I'm breastfeeding, I won't drink during the week but I'll sometimes have 3-4 glasses on the weekends (and pay for it the next day)

Before baby, I could easily finish off a bottle myself on the weekends and not have a hangover (could even have a cocktail before + wine and no hangover). During the week, I had 2-3 glasses a night while cooking and with dinner.
5 weeks post partum my tolerance is definitely lower! I still like to have a glass of wine most every night...sometimes I'll finish it, sometimes I won't, but I only have 1 glass.

The most I'll drink at one time is 1/2 a bottle but honestly wine gives me the worst hangovers so I tend to drink just a glass of it at a time and only if someone offers it to me. If I'm at a work HH and don't want to get drunk I'll order red wine since you can hold it all night and sip it really slowly without worrying about it getting warm or diluted.
