A vinometer provides a quick measurement of alcohol in finished wine. Simply place a few drops in the tube and read its alcohol content on the scale. It is designed to measure dry wines with an alcohol content between 0% and 25%. Stronger wines can be tested by diluting the sample by 1/2 and then multiplying the result by 2. Sweeter wines with residual sugar can also be tested using the dilution method but will provide approximate results. The clear glass and white background is ideal for testing rosé and red wines (lighter-colored wines will be more difficult to read).
