Drinking two glasses of wine every night does not automatically mean a person is clinically dependent on alcohol or meets the medical definition of having an alcohol use disorder, but it does exceed moderate drinking guidelines set by health organizations. Dietary guidelines typically define moderate drinking as up to one drink per day for women and up to two drinks per day for men, but two standard glasses of wine daily equate to fourteen drinks a week, which elevates long-term health risks associated with liver strain, high blood pressure, and other chronic conditions regardless of psychological dependence.
